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 RicksWifeAmber on February 18, 2010 at 8:37pm: I think it's safe to say we're all ready to leave for GL NOW! I feel better today after my letters. Just another stepping stone on this walkway to "Sailorhood"~ Thank you Lord for finally letting it get here.

Comment by RicksWifeAmber on February 18, 2010 at 8:27pm: Awww Debbie your other child is just precious... hope he (or she) is okay!

Comment by bahkmom09/86 on February 18, 2010 at 7:40pm: ok....that fixed it!

Comment by bahkmom09/86 on February 18, 2010 at 7:38pm: ok, so maybe I didn't fix my username, just got the picture to add....I will try again...that's ok...this just extends our page use

Comment by bahkmom09/86 on February 18, 2010 at 7:38pm: ok, fixed my username...

Yes, it seems the letters are slow in arriving. His gf got a nice long letter last week and ours showed up today. They sounded like they were written about the same time. Go figure!

Debbie - our previous dog had bad hips and she took medicine...she thought they were treats and you would never know she had a problem. You are right, that part is easy to deal with. Good luck with the rest.

Colleen - no I suspect my son is not part of your son's group. A letter to his gf indicated that he was a section leader though.

Comment by Debbie on February 18, 2010 at 7:33pm: Ohhh that is so sweet! At least she is a good sport!!!

Comment by dreams on February 18, 2010 at 7:24pm: Yes Debbie, she has my daughter's ladybug slippers on and her sweater... She's not thrilled about it, but she's a good sport - my daughter even paints her toenails in the summer! Sheesh!

Comment by Debbie on February 18, 2010 at 7:21pm: Dreams - love your doggie pic!!! Does he/she have slippers on?

Comment by dreams on February 18, 2010 at 7:12pm: GMan - I'm hearing the same thing about a few folks spoiling things for everyone.... I guess that's why I haven't gotten any more calls either...oh well, nothing we can do about that from here....just gotta look ahead and focus on that "reunion" time!!!

Comment by dreams on February 18, 2010 at 7:08pm: No letter for me today either... bummer! Thursday is usually my letter day, but with the holiday on Monday I'm hoping it'll be tomorrow... Eternal optimist here (most of the time). I guess I'm having the same sleep issues everyone else is.... I'm so excited and want to remember to take everything I've heard on here to take and things I've thought of the past few weeks. .. I just can't wait to hug that boy! ....well, I mean man! One week from today we'll be "meeting and greeting"... oh that reminds me -- gotta go work on my ribbons! LOL
