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 March 25, 2014 at 9:38am: KathyA...will pray for your ENS...Thank You Father God for this young man,You see his struggle, send help speedily in Jesus name,thanks Lord!

Comment by KathyA on March 25, 2014 at 8:31am: Good morning, sisters in faith. May I ask your prayers, please, for my ENS in flight training who is struggling. He failed his check ride last night and goes before the review board today and fears he may be separated from the Navy. I know that He is in control and His plans are always for our good. Thank you for praying with me today. May God bless you all.

Comment by KathyMmom on March 11, 2014 at 1:12pm: So true Blondie - I see people often that say the don't have Faith, but yet they have Love and Hope, so I keep telling them that because they have the gift of Grace, they have Love and Hope, and therefore, Faith, even if they don't even know it! I get strange looks, but it makes them think about things.

Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see. ~Hebrews 11.1

Comment by outi on March 7, 2014 at 11:37am: Praying for complete healing in Jesus name!

Comment by carols_kitchen on February 21, 2014 at 9:17pm: Jean, I was just about to ask about an update. It would have seemed more comfortable if they had kept him a day after surgery. However, perhaps letting him sleep and relax at home was more comforting if he is out of danger. God's love to you. Carol

Comment by Oneofalot on February 21, 2014 at 9:07pm: To give you an update. My daughters father in law is doing really well. Surgery was went well. They sent him home that day. I don't get that but whatever. Thanks for all your prayers.

Comment by Oneofalot on February 20, 2014 at 1:02am: Hi everyone. I need everyone to pray for my daughters father in law. He is having brain surgery tomorrow. They found a masses in there that is infected and if it spreads it could leave him brain dead.
