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."

As we approach Maundy Thursday, Good Friday and Easter, we bless you for the human you sent to forgive our sins in the name of Jesus. Let us remember to keep this week holy.
Also, my sailor's classmate from high school is struggling with 2 of his Marine troops who were seriously injured in Iraq this week. Please be with those families and support them in your love.
Amen

Comment by Mari on March 29, 2009 at 12:46am: Thank you Cheryl for the prayers for my son, I appreciate it so much. God Bless you and all the wonderful prayers partners that we have in this site.

Comment by Cheryl Proud to be Allen's Mom on March 28, 2009 at 9:10pm: Alisa, I will be praying for you during your gall bladder surgery on April 2. I had my gall bladder removed 6 wks after my second child was born 24 yrs ago. It was such a relief to have it taken out compared to the pain & discomfort of the attacks & pain I was experiencing. I know it isn't something to take lightly.

Lord, Father in Heaven please surround Alisa with your loving comfort. Please place your healing, comforting hands on her before, during and after the surgery. Please be with the doctors and nurses involved with her surgery, guide and direct them. Thank you Father for allowing us to come to you whenever & for whatever we need.

Also, Lord, please be with Mari's son in boot camp. Help him to become healthy and strong again. Allow his body to heal and allow him to be able to complete boot camp with his unit. Please be with Mari so that she is reassured that you have complete control and will heal her son. Comfort her and let her know you are there. Thank God for all this and so much more that is unspoken. Amen
