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 outi on September 13, 2014 at 10:54pm: Florida mom, praying for healing for your son and peace for you and your son in Jesus name!

Comment by Florida mom on September 13, 2014 at 9:32pm: Feeling helpless my son had an EKG and something did not look right so he was put on light duty for 2 weeks until he's sees a cardiologist
Praying that it's just a precaution and everything will be fine

Comment by carols_kitchen on September 13, 2014 at 5:40pm: The search and rescue was just called off for our missing sailor from the Carl Vinson area. May God bless this pilot's family and loved ones.

Comment by Momsoblessed on September 12, 2014 at 8:42am: Prayers for your Son and you CeCe that his leg will be healed and that all will be ok may God shield with him Strength and Wisdom and bring peace to your Heart and Mind.....

Comment by CeCe on September 11, 2014 at 7:57pm: I just got a call from my son. Not so happy. His leg is hurting, but will not go to medical. He's afraid of being set back. I am praying for him. That's all I can do.

Comment by pt57girl on September 8, 2014 at 2:24am: I am glad to be a part of this group to lift up our sailors in prayer for God's protection and blessing over their lives. I love these Psalms from chapters 62 and 63 where it speaks of finding rest in God alone, He is our refuge and rock and salvation. Through the watches of the night, He is our help, His right hand upholds me. This is my prayer to all our sons and daughters on the Carl Vinson.

Comment by KathyMmom on September 5, 2014 at 5:20pm: Vickie - they are allowed a small bible. I found the HCSB sailors bible at our Christian book store and hand them engrave his name on it. It is black with the navy insignia embossed on the front and soft cover, about 7x5x1. It worked great for this purpose. You can also find it at amazon if you want to look for HCSB Sailors bible. :-)

Comment by Vickie360 on September 4, 2014 at 9:14pm: Thanks so much for the advice. Did you get a small Bible? Did he have room for it? I thought everything had to come back in a box. I'm learning... Thanks everyone!
