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 michaelsmom(ship14/div195) on May 19, 2010 at 2:23pm: got a letter from Michael today is a very busy week had his final PFA on monday, has the gas chamber, his final test and battle stations on Thursday says to expect call on Friday says things are getting better has 8 days left YEAH!!!

Comment by lori on May 19, 2010 at 11:35am: Ok sorry Denise- you are right next tues is BS. I'm just focused on this week.
Which they have personal inspections, final PHA, and test 3.
So after friday THEN I'm going to be focused on tues, Make sense? Cause from the lack of sleep I'm not sure I make sense now!

Comment by lori on May 19, 2010 at 11:02am: I was up throughout the night praying for all these guys- these next 3 days are going to be the tough ones. But I have every confidence in them to run this final race and come out the better for it.

Comment by Nanon on May 19, 2010 at 9:22am: We are leaving a week from today. We will be in the air when the I'm a sailor call should come in. It won't be until we are on a layover that I will be able to check my messages to see if she called. It will make the flying with a 2 year old even that much more difficult. But I have my prayers out that the call comes in, not something else to awful to mention.

But, with as many prayers as we all are out there sending we can't lose.

Comment by lori on May 18, 2010 at 10:01pm: clkilty- are you going to be able to be there at M&G?
I'm making up corsages for the moms on here who are going or can find a way to
get their corsage.
Let me know

Comment by LindaTX-Proud Mom of Salior on May 18, 2010 at 8:46pm: Yes ma'am, I answered you. I think you have to go to your page to see my answer. I couldn't get a picture to download. I appreciate you so much, I love your idea just not sure you could find him in the sea of people.

Comment by LindaTX-Proud Mom of Salior on May 18, 2010 at 8:32pm: When PIR is done will some of you let me know how it was? I can't be there and feel I am missing out on so much. I would love to hear about it all if anyone has some time.

Comment by DeannaD-Bigpumpkin on May 18, 2010 at 6:30pm: LAdies, You are all getting so close. I see you are all putting together colors for each Div. Hope most of you make the M&G it is a lot of fun. Will have you all in my mind when Battlestations start.

AnnD, hope all is going good for you.

Comment by Mar ProudSailorMom on May 18, 2010 at 1:26pm: Here is the link for the AFTER PIR Meet and Greet that Jakesmom put together! YEAH HER!!!
My thought is you might as well come by and meet up with us since you'll have to wait for your SAILOR anyway! And everyone will already be there, unlike us poor people who will miss out on the one the night before!

JOIN IN ALL!! :)
