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."

Thank you so much for keeping them safe and surrounding them with a hedge of protective angels. Also, thank you for bringing Jessi into Allen's life and I ask for Your blessing over their marriage that took place yesterday. Thank you for Your love and all You do for each of us everyday.

Comment by carols_kitchen on December 13, 2009 at 11:45pm: What a wonderful Christmas play we had this weekend at church. I do ask for prayers for our sound/lights/trombone player. Mark was seriously injured in a car/truck wreck with the Missouri Department of Transportation, which Mark works for. He has been in a coma since October. When his teenage daughter played Mary tonight, I was in tears all the rest of the evening. She was just so sweet and so good for the part. Missed seeing her dad there so much. They are such a great family.
Please pray for Mark's recovery and his family.
thank you
