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 crystaldj1972 6/915 on February 23, 2010 at 12:08pm: good morning everyone! Well it definitely snowed last night and is still snowing. Schools are closed, not to mention, so is the highway to my sons girlfriends house. Looks like we are going to have to come up with an alternate plan. It is supposed to be warm tomorrow, so if all else fails then I will do an all nighter across Texas and make sure everyone gets on that plane! We will NOT miss PIR! My sisters friend said something about gearing up the tractor and going to get her for me. They are only an hour from my future daughter in law. The interstate is closed just a few miles from me due to a jacknifed rig in both lanes. Looks like it will get interesting. The snow is supposed to stop around noon and start warming up. We will see...

SARwife-what a beautiful angel you have! congratulations!
Dildraa I am holding your son in prayer that he WILL tread water!
Colleen and Trish and Denise and well just about everybody, praying for clear skies for travel.
GMan my sincerest wishes for you and your family during the loss of your Grandma.

Comment by dreams on February 23, 2010 at 12:05pm: Just thought I'd check back in ...and wow - either everyone's asleep or on the road! I am so ready to just get there!!!! I was just looking at the pix on the 02/19 PIR group's board and it sure is getting me more excited!!! Can't wait to see that sea of sailors marching in....and what fun it will be to try and find that "one" we're all looking for! LOL

Comment by Gman Navy Husband on February 23, 2010 at 9:35am: thanks all. I cannot wait for this crap to be over with, today and Friday! I wish her BS21 was today so I could leave early!

Comment by dreams on February 23, 2010 at 9:26am: Good morning !!!

Be safe on the road those of you who are venturing forth (I've lost who's going how and when) I can barely remember how I drove to work today...what a fog I'm in... and I didn't even get a chance to try those brownies yet!!!! Whose got 'em anyway??

SARwife - Glad to see you back on the board.... Hope to see you at PIR... Beautiful baby and beautiful name!

Comment by crystaldj1972 6/915 on February 23, 2010 at 2:17am: Just thought I would check up on any extra posts before I went to bed. I looked outside and the ground is covered in snow and it is blowing like crazy. Snowflakes going every direction possible, and big as I have ever seen! you can guess if there is two inches on the ground school will be closed tomorrow!

Comment by crystaldj1972 6/915 on February 23, 2010 at 2:15am: saying an extra prayer for you Gman. Hope all goes as well as can be expected hun.

Comment by Gman Navy Husband on February 23, 2010 at 12:59am: cudawn Ship 07 Div 103, just seen your question to me. No I haven't heard from my wife so I am hoping like you know what that she passed her final PFA. I am hoping that since she didn't call today she passed and leaving it at that. Tomorrow I have my g-ma's funeral and have to keep my brother entertained until he leaves, had to have him around today and didn't get some stuff I needed done but oh well. This is a hectic week!

Comment by Gman Navy Husband on February 23, 2010 at 12:55am: cudawn Ship 07 Div 103, you are right. It should be the recruiters fault the whole way. My wife couldn't swim at all and he knew that from the get-go. He missed a swim session with her and was late to another. I hate to smack talk the recruiter but it is their fault totally. Our recruiter didn't even tell us that my wife could use the YMCA for free to learn to swim!! We found out the day she was leaving!
