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 Cheryl Proud to be Allen's Mom on April 15, 2011 at 3:16pm: Blondie--thank you so much for the wisdom. As usual you are so wise and helpful. Love the Lakota Indian Story. Very good! I will remember both your wise insight and story.

Comment by Cheryl Proud to be Allen's Mom on April 15, 2011 at 8:43am: Praying for you all and your much needed prayer requests. I think that God is causing miracles to happen with my son Allen and his wife, Jessica. They are now actually talking and working on their marriage. Taking it one day at a time. Still he is overseas, but coming home for a short visit in mid-May. Please continue to pray for them. Thank you! Also, if I could ask for aprayer for my relationship with my DIL Jessica. She is not answering any of my messages and I am upset that maybe there is something she isn't communicating to me about how she feels towards me. My children and granddaughters are my whole life and it is tearing me to pieces. Thank you! I am praying for God to work in me and through me to heal this relationship as well as my relationship with my son Allen.

Comment by Proud Navy/NYPD Mom (Donna) on April 15, 2011 at 12:04am: Please pray for my granddaughter, Samantha. She was rushed to the hospital this evening with a high temperature & screaming uncontrolably. She has had blood work taken and a lumbar puncture performed. So far no results. She's been admitted for IV fluids and antibiotics. She is only 3-1/2 weeks old. Pray too for my son and his wife as they are understandably upset -- and so are my husband and I. Thank you.

Comment by navyfam on April 14, 2011 at 5:52pm: oops Mar is in another Christian prayer page!

Comment by navyfam on April 14, 2011 at 5:28pm: Update:

I want to thank all of you amazing wormen for your prayers! I did speak to my husband and could feel God's presence and my notes helped as well! He really didn't have any answers for his behavior but he did listen and understood where I was coming from and my feelings of hurt, anger and disrespect.

He did thank me for the way I handled the situation....speakiing calmly and from the heart...rather than biting his head off...Trust me that is my nature and I wanted too but the LORD quieted my spirit and I was able to be calm and have peace.

Do I like the way things are right now? NO but I will cling to the Lord and you wonderful prayer warriors! AS Mar said GIANT HUGS!!!!!

Comment by navyfam on April 14, 2011 at 11:09am: Blondie-Thanks again...yes you are right we can't rehearse what they think or feel, it was just good so I won't be so flustered. Then I get mad and my tongue is my worst enemy at that point!

I so appreciate your support and MOST of all your prayers as well as all of the other ladies...I am blessed!

Comment by navyfam on April 14, 2011 at 10:57am: Blondie-glad I'm not the only one who hates conflict....I understand what you are saying but LYING has no excuse in my book. TRUST is everything in a marriage. I talked to a good friend last night and she is very good w/communication and we rehearsed a back and forth....I am sticking to the I feel hurt, betrayed etc. statements and not getting into a fight but letting him know how I feel.

Comment by navyfam on April 14, 2011 at 9:30am: Thanks Blondie! Xoxo

Comment by navyfam on April 14, 2011 at 9:09am: Good morning ladies....praying for all the concerns here.

Angela, so glad you heard from your sailor. He sounds so sweet & considerate. Praying for your Mom & for strength & comfort for you. Blondie is right our Lord always has a plan & will use these circumstances for His good purpose.

I guess I'm preaching to myself as well!

I sure could use all of your prayers & cyber hugs...marriage issues, long story short I found out husband has been lying to me & I need to confront him. This isn't the 1st time & I am concerned especially financially as I've stayed home w/the kids. Lord please help me!
