OPSEC - Navy Operations Security

Always keep Navy Operations Security in mind. In the Navy, it's essential to remember that "loose lips sink ships." OPSEC is everyone's responsibility.

DON'T post critical information including future destinations or ports of call; future operations, exercises or missions; deployment or homecoming dates.

DO be smart, use your head, always think OPSEC when using texts, email, phone, and social media, and watch this video: "Importance of Navy OPSEC."

Comment by Tess (Ship 11, Div. 210) on May 5, 2010 at 1:03pm: Thank you Tristans Mom and Sealifedifferently. We are a team and devoted to our own mission -- to get our recruits through basic training! Funny how our connection seems to have taken on a power of its own. Hold on to hope and keeping sending our combined love and strength to our men and women --even if it's telepathically!

Yes mng will go on until 8pm so plenty of time to meet...if you want my husband and myself will wait for you ...the mng is in the bar.

Comment by Sealifedifferently-ship11/Div209 on May 5, 2010 at 12:15pm: TristansMom - my sons mane is Bobby. I am hoping I make it to the MnG but I do not arrive until 5:48 becuase I have a meeting in the morning that I have to attend. but as soon as I get there I will come down to see if I can meet any of you.

Comment by JudyB. on May 5, 2010 at 12:13pm: Sealifediferently - Good Morning, yes...I did mention to T that we have been talking to each other and you are a God send to me!! I forget your son is Alex...Steven...or Andrew. Moms of these boys Please let me know who you are?! I would really like to meet in person at MnG if you're going to the Ramada Thursday night 6/10...I would like to get to know all of you better. Does anyone know if our Guys will be able to join us at mng?

Comment by Sealifedifferently-ship11/Div209 on May 5, 2010 at 12:02pm: Tristans Mom - not sure if you seen my message but I think my son met T. When I talked to him he said that one of the guys came up to him and said that he thought that we (the moms) were talking. I figured it might be T. My sone said that they have not gotten a lot of time to talk and get to know everyone. Good luck with the Grandbabies! I too hope to have some ...someday!
