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 Lois C T(momma T) on May 22, 2009 at 10:34am: Good news for your dad! I will keep your aunt in my prayers!

Comment by Lois C T(momma T) on May 19, 2009 at 7:06pm: Trish, Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.( I am a breast cancer survivor almost 4 years, so keep a positive attitude). If there is anything I can do, please let me know.

Comment by Lois C T(momma T) on May 12, 2009 at 7:02pm: Hi Marianne, I am not on as often as I was either, things here have been a little hectic. Trish had mentioned about doing the shirts ourselves with transfers, that is what I was referring to.

Comment by Lois C T(momma T) on May 11, 2009 at 4:12pm: Hi, A belated Mother's day wish to all, hope everyone had a wonderful day!
Yes, Marianne, it has finally stopped raining, Sat. was rainy on foggy here in South County, but we up to "the city" late afternoon, and the sun was shining, and it stayed out until dark!! Sun. and Today we did not have rain, bright, beautiful sunshine, but it is windy and cooold!!!!!!! Go figure, New England weather!
Re: the tee shirts EVERYTHING is long on me, I am probably the only person you ever heard of, who has to "hem" shirts!!!!
As for making the tee shirts ourselves, I would rather spend a couple of extra dollars and buy it, unless someone wants to make mine!!! I am not real crafty!

Comment by Lois C T(momma T) on May 7, 2009 at 2:43pm: Hi Marianne, I am not really "little" just short, I am not overweight , I am undertall! However Marc did bring me a large sweatshirt and it is very comfortable, but tee-shirts usually fit differently!
