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 GranmaFaye on August 30, 2017 at 9:44pm: Joining in prayer for your son, Shamrockmom.

Comment by Blondie on August 30, 2017 at 3:08pm: Shamrockmom, I'm not sure where your son is in His walk with Christ but this helped my daughter many times, thought I'd pass it on. Let him know we are Praying and lighting candles for him. Sometimes just knowing others are praying helps.

We fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.

2 Corinthians 4:18

God, regardless of what’s happening today, thank you for giving me direction and purpose. Give me courage when I feel as though I’m swimming in the dark. I know you are here Lord, I know you are with me always. Thank you, strengthen me, show me the way to your plan for my life. My I never stop Praising you. Amen

Comment by outi on August 30, 2017 at 2:09pm: Yes in agreement in Jesus name!

Comment by Jesusintheboat on August 30, 2017 at 12:57pm: Abba Father I come to you in the name of Jesus and ask that you will give Shamrockmom peace concerning her son. I pray for her son that you will send others to come alongside him to encourage him and be walking alongside him to help him along with the adjustments he is dealing with ,to be his friend/friends. That they will be a listening ear for him. I pray as he does class that he will have wisdom and understanding in learning. Thank you Lord for Your faithfulness.
