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 Gman Navy Husband on February 13, 2010 at 3:58pm: do they have to "pass" an ironing test?? I will keep my comment on this to myself!

Comment by crystaldj1972 6/915 on February 13, 2010 at 3:47pm: Those bags are so adorable!!! I wish I had that talent! No letter today, guess Ill have to wait til monday or tuesday. I am getting scared about all of these tests. Dereck had said he had failed on test, but got to retake it. It was the ironing test. He said he didnt get the center line correct, so I am sure he retook it. I wonder what tests they are allowed to retake..all of them? Oh I hope he passed his PFA. I'll be in suspense waiting!

Comment by RicksWifeAmber on February 13, 2010 at 2:26pm: It was just a fun little project on the sides I added photos from today of sailors kissing their wives @ homecoming and one of a little girl and her daddy. I found all kinds of 3-D things that really made it turn out cute. It also helped that the entire hospital knows me and that Rick has left and I had to spend my anniversary and Valentine's alone. They are like my huge extended family. All 600+ of them LOL

Comment by RicksWifeAmber on February 13, 2010 at 2:22pm: And this is the back

Comment by RicksWifeAmber on February 13, 2010 at 2:21pm: Sorry that sucker is huge lol

Comment by RicksWifeAmber on February 13, 2010 at 2:17pm: Not the best picture~ took it with my cell

I'll have to dig my digital camera out and get a pic up.
And yes the photo in Time Square by Alfred Eisenstadt

Comment by Courtney (Adam's wife) <3 on February 13, 2010 at 2:04pm: Oh, I wanted to mention that for the final PFA, my hubby said that 26 people in DIV 106 didn't pass, so maybe we could keep those recruits and their families in our prayers... that is probably a lot of disappointed people :( I am sooo excited this morning ... it is getting closer!! :)

Comment by RicksWifeAmber on February 13, 2010 at 12:37pm: We don't have a Michaels:( but I did manage to find a good bit of stuff @ Hobby Lobby. Did I tell you guys about the contest we had @ work? In my drama yesterday I may have forgotten to mention it. My bag won most romantic :-)!!!
We all had different themes and I chose WWII sailor homecomings complete with the Sailors Kiss photo and actual replicas of war bonds as well as posters from the movie 3 Sailors and a Girl. I was able to stain my pictures with tea and they came out very authentic looking. It turned out so cute!
