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 NevadaSierra on March 4, 2009 at 10:40am: Hi Everybody: I know that this may be early - but our computer is a little cranky - we would appreciate prayers for our Brianna. She is 14 months old, and will have her cleft pallet surgery next Tuesday - the 10th. Thanks - my angel blessings ~~S {her Oma}

Comment by carols_kitchen on February 28, 2009 at 8:13pm: Eternal God,
Please be with Sherry. Let there be that one stroke of fortune where she finds a place to live willing to keep service animals. Let there be one doctor who looks at her test results and finds a new insight and diagnosis. Let there be one friend who is miles close who can reach out and give her a cup of tea or coffee and a shoulder to cry on. Let there be one God who heals and finds new strength in her legs to carry her on.
In Jesus all miracles can happen,
Amen

Please be with Lynn. Place a peace on her shoulders. Help her find her calm spot with you. We know that she has been worried over John and the absence of communication. Guide her pastor in her spiritual care. And, Lord, let Lynn know that Your word is trustworthy in all times.
Amen

Thank you for the reminder that Spring is a renewal of life. The robins are in the yard and the daffodils are pushing through the ground. I praise you.
Amen

Comment by NevadaSierra on February 23, 2009 at 10:29am: I want to ask the prayer warrior's on this site to please pray for all of the parent's who are hurting. Oh Lord, heal our hurt hearts, protect our children and give to them the people that they need at this time. We know it is not always us, so Lord, give them courage to accept new people in their lives for support, encouragement and to mentor them along this path. Lord, please do the same for those parent's hurting here. Give them the words they need to read to ease their pain, the grace they need to get through the hurt, anger and frustration. Jesus, love all of us through this time of trial. Thank you and your angels for this site. Amen

Comment by Cheryl Proud to be Allen's Mom on February 18, 2009 at 7:54pm: Thank you Father God for safe passage for my SIL Luke and his AF squadron making it safely to Qatar, Saudia Arabia. Please continue to be with him and his squadron as they move on to Kandahar, Afghanistan soon. Please place a band of protective angels around them and let them know that we are all here loving, missing and praying for them. You are a most loving and gracious God!

I also would like to include my daughter Ali in this prayer request. She is the daughter married to my SIL Luke in the AF. She has been having some medical problems and is very afraid and anxious that it may be cancer or that even if it isn't that she can't take care of her 2 young children, my granddaughters, by herself. I am considering moving to Arkansas to be there with her and the girls since Luke will be gone for up to 4 months or more. Thank you Lord God for giving Ali, Kenzie & Madi your love and protection also. Please be with them in their time of need. I pray that you will also surround them with a band of protective angels. Thank you Heavenly Father for all that you have done, do and will do for us even when we don't deserve your love and care.

Comment by carols_kitchen on February 18, 2009 at 4:09pm: Dearest Heavenly Father
We know your arms are open and waiting for Cleta. I know how much she will enjoy meeting my mom as they talk about their loved sailors. Please be with Jim and help his love to keep him supported.
And Father, please let our sailor know that their love transcends all distance.
Amen
