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."

I know how much it truly means to know that there are such wonderful prayer warriors raising your name and those you are praying for to God. He is an AWESOME God and is ALWAYS there even when we don't think He is. God Bless you all!!! God Bless our military!!!!

Comment by BugsMom on June 17, 2010 at 5:52pm: Carol our prayers are with baby Noah and his parents! God bless them and be with them.

I have an answer to prayer to share with you all....my nephew Matt is on his way home! He will continue his recovery from his own room! He had contracted an infection but they got it whipped! We are all so excited. He will not be able to walk or stand on his leg for another 12-18 months and will face an upcoming surgery for urethra repair, but he is on his way home right now! Praise God...thank you so much for your prayers. I will keep you posted as God continues this miracle of healing.

Comment by carols_kitchen on June 17, 2010 at 3:30pm: Baby Noah just had a setback. Continue to be our prayer warriors for this baby and his parents.

Comment by BugsMom on June 17, 2010 at 2:19pm: Judi we are praying for Zach! God bless this young man and give him the strength to fight this deadly disease! We pray that his cancer will go in to remission!
Carol - we are also continuing to pray for baby Noah and his young parents, may the Lord bless them and heal his tiny little body.
Judi, thank you for sharing such a wonderful report, so glad they all had a good time and touched so many lives. May the Lord continue to bless them all. I hope you get some rest now, you've earned it!
Blondie, thank you for your continued prayer, God bless you!
I know the power of prayer and this group is a strong group of praying moms! My son called me yesterday, I hadn't heard his voice in a month! He sounded wonderful. His group is on the move to a new base to relieve some that have completed their deployment. Please continue to pray for them, that they would arrive safely and stay safe. And for the group coming home, please pray that they arrive home safely to their loved ones. Thank you all and God bless you!

Comment by carols_kitchen on June 17, 2010 at 12:05pm: Thanks to all who are praying for baby Noah. His parents are quite scared--they are young, this is their first baby--we remember how we fretted about little things with our babies who are now our adult kids. Love you all! Carol
