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 BugsMom on June 2, 2010 at 2:44pm: Nurse Navy Mom...God bless you and thank you so much. I feel God's power and I know He is healing Matt. I will keep you all posted while this miracle happens.

Comment by BugsMom on June 2, 2010 at 11:17am: Blondie, you have a very special gift of prayer. BHappy - God bless you and thank you so much! It brings me tears of joy and comfort to read your words. I do believe the Lord is in control, I need to be reminded to leave my cares in His very capable hands and to rest in the Lord. Thank you for that reminder! God bless you!

Comment by BugsMom on June 2, 2010 at 10:52am: God bless you all and thank you so much for your prayers. I told my mom that I had posted a prayer request for Matt and that my Navy Moms would be praying for him round the clock and coast to coast! Matt truly is an amazing young man, I will keep you all posted as he continues to improve. Grace, Blondie and Carols kitchen, thank you so much for your prayers and kind words.

Comment by carols_kitchen on June 2, 2010 at 9:48am: BugsMom--we have Matt covered across the country in prayers.

Comment by BugsMom on June 1, 2010 at 6:45pm: I have a special prayer request. My nephew Matt was in a very bad car accident over the week end. He just returned from Afghanistan and was due to go back in a couple of weeks. I'm told he has already undergone 2 surgeries. He is expectected to survive his injuries, but will be in the hospital for about a month. Please pray for this very brave young man. Thank you so much and God bless you all!

Comment by carols_kitchen on June 1, 2010 at 2:29pm: When you do add pix, please be sure and go down to "options" and it gives you a checkbox to make the pix smaller. Otherwise is slows down the other person's computer and gives you a distorted stretched out photo.
Also, do you have a slot for a memory card on your computer? If so, as soon as you enter it,there should be a help box that comes up and asks if you want to download them. If you can't figure that out, both Walmart and Walgreens let you put the memory card in their kisok and download to a cd.

Comment by carols_kitchen on May 31, 2010 at 3:29pm: Praying for the family of our local SR Airman Smith, who died overseas in battle this winter. He was remembered at today's services for our troops and veterans.

Comment by jean on May 31, 2010 at 11:03am: pray for the unrest in the middle east.

Comment by carols_kitchen on May 29, 2010 at 10:59am: "If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land." 2 Chronicles 7:14 NIV

Please join us in our prayers for the men and women of the Armed Forces Of The United States Of America and other countries who are now in harm's way in Afghanistan, Iraq, and other parts of the world. We thank them and their families for their sacrifices.

We are grateful for the ultimate price of freedom paid by those fallen. We pray for strength and courage for the POWS and Missing In Action and those held hostage.

We pray for the protection and safety of selfless relief workers and missionaries who help those in need.

We pray for the protection of children and innocent civilians.

We pray for our nation and our leaders.

(The Howards, after 22 years serving in the Navy)
