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."

What a great website and what a great comfort to know there are so many out there praying for my son too. I will be praying for all of yours too. I have a real comfort that the Lord wants D in the navy and doing this, but I sure have to hold strong to my faith for this.

I'm praying for the folks in Georgia who are affected by the flooding. Only God can control the weather and I ask Him to dry things up so no one else is hurt or loses their home.

Father, today our guys had a rough day. Please give them the rest they need for tomorrow's challenges. Let healing take place so they can wake in the morning refreshed and ready for the day.

The prayer my son says before every training or when things begin to get rough. God I thank you for the strength you have given me, the wisdom to use it and I pray for your guidance should you change my path. He repeats it over and over, then he says he feels a calm feeling and focuses on the seeing himself complete what he is doing at that moment.
So for me, I pray for all the young men, their safety, their health and most of all the strength and wisdom to handle all that lies ahead. -

Today I'm praying for bj and her job situation. Whatever is right for her and her family God make it happen. Also, I pray for the boys to have a restful weekend, for injuries to heal, but spitits to be renewed so they can be ready for the next challenge.

God I ask that you give the boys the strength and courage they need to complete the tasks before them this week. Protect them from injury and sickness. Give their mom's and dad's what they need to continue the wonderful support they give.

I will Pooky, that is not good. We'll pray for it to heal very quickly and for him to be back to 100% !
Lord we lift up M to you and ask that you heal his ankle right now. We know that your healing comes to those who ask. Let him wake tomorrow with no ill effects from today, and also anyone else who is hurt tonight to feel your touch.

I think this is a great idea, Tee! I did not know you had posted this discussion. I am definitely on board. Please add my son to the prayer list as he has a really bad case of shin splints and is on LLD at the moment.
