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 dreams on February 20, 2010 at 8:47am: Good Morning to all !!!! Just couldn't wait to get back on here and catch up!

GMan - my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family..

sg357 - thanks for the restaurant tip, I'll let you know how it is...

I say YAY to FB or we can stay on here as ALUMNI PIR 2/26... Either way, I have grown very fond of y'all (that's southern talk for you guys... LOL)

Going out shopping today with my daughter to get her a warm coat and boots...

This time next week, we'll all be throwing down some pancakes with our sailors!!!

Boy - I could sure use some brownies! LOL

Comment by crystaldj1972 6/915 on February 20, 2010 at 8:24am: *Yawn* morning all. 5 days til PIR! Just woke and had to come check the posts. Was another two pages since I was on last night. I assume today is the big day for Dildraas son. If she doesnt hear anything, we all know he passed! I'm keeping my fingers crossed for him. No news is good news right?
Im a yay on the facebook site. Thats another site I happen to be addicted to. Between N4M's and facebook, they keep my phone buzzing. Dont know what I would do if I actually had a real job to go to again. That would take up my time from seeing all of you people. priorities right? Hope everyone has a great day and keep our kids in mind for the captains cup!

Comment by Debbie on February 20, 2010 at 7:22am: 3 am here in CA - can't sleep so that I would check in on you guys......cleaned up the kitchen, ate a brownie (no lie!) - after all that brownie talk, I had to make some but these are the very G rated type - still good though.

Well, here we are - final week - cannot believe we are finally here....looking forward to getting on that plane thursday.....

Several of us have mentioned the desire to stay in touch after PIR. If you all are interested - I will make us a Facebook site that we can all be members of so that we can maintain our chat forum. Just let me know - yay or nay and I will build it.

Comment by Proud SARwife on February 20, 2010 at 1:12am: Just a couple more days everyone! This week is gonna be really rough for our SR's so lets keep praying that they keep their strength to pull it all together!

Comment by crystaldj1972 6/915 on February 19, 2010 at 11:53pm: Everyone say an extra prayer for dildraas son to pass his swimming test!

Comment by crystaldj1972 6/915 on February 19, 2010 at 11:51pm: OZMom its gotta be, we wouldnt recognize you by anything but that (and we would still probably call you that anyway!)

ok all, I just took my night time meds and am wiping off the brownie crumbs, no not really, but I am about to head to bed before these things kick in and make me hurl. You all have a good night and pray for us to get a letter tomorrow. It has been way too long since I have heard from my son. 2 weeks. I need to hear something! Sweet dreams everybody- sleep with the angels!

Comment by Gman Navy Husband on February 19, 2010 at 11:47pm: Thanks, I know that she is better off this way. I am just waiting for the fighting to begin. You know how siblings are!! Glad I am just there to watch!

Comment by crystaldj1972 6/915 on February 19, 2010 at 11:44pm: GMan our thoughts and prayers are with you as your family goes through this hard time. May god lift the heavy burdens from your family's shoulders and make this newest transition in the cycle of life easier to handle. Cherish your memories and all of your moments. We are here if you need us.
