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."

WOW.. 38 more days..that makes it sound sooo close!!
i read that and had to count it for myself and make sure i wasnt in the regular bootcamp forum. i thought i was dreaming for a second.

Comment by Jodi Cory's Mom(Ship 09 Div 223) on May 18, 2010 at 11:23am: I feel the same way YIPEE!!! Only 38 more days. I was hoping for a letter today as well I only live about 3 hours away. I do everything I can to keep my mind busy but I still go right on thinking about Cory. What I am thankful for is all you you ladies out there. Reading what everyone has written keeps me going. So thanks to all of you!

Comment by annafornavy on May 18, 2010 at 11:11am: I know what all of you are feeling ladies. I am starving for some news from my son. Thank God work is a distraction a tid bit for me but the weekends are so hard. I work in the yard alot but that aloows me to think about him and rememberinfg the times he was out there with me. I cant escape the madness.. LOL... 38 days YIPEEE!!!! That sounds so much better than a month... I cant wait until we all get letters and share with on another what our loved ones had to say.... I live 2 hours from chicago so I am hoping mine is waiting in my box today.. : ) But I hear their mail arrives Wed or Thur no matter how close you live...
