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."

Dereck said that the divisions in battlestations last night were 103, 105, 914 and 915. he said all passed that he knew of. Also said it was colder than heck standing outside in the cold while the fire department put out the fires. He said he wished they would have gotten to fight those fires because at least they would have been close enough to be warm!
Dildraa- congrats to your swimmer!!! Congrats to all!

I also asked Dereck about some of the people being allowed to call, he said it was up to the RDC's and how nice they feel like being- some may have to wait til tomorrow to call.

Amber - It sounds like you're having a hell of a day girl! I wish I could offer some advice, but I have none. I'm clueless about how to get info from there...Please hang in there and hopefully you'll hear something soon. It sounds like your father-in-law is a man of action and is gonna get you there no matter what!

Saying prayers...
