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 Pam on September 20, 2011 at 12:50pm: LOL - very true about knowing what your saying! Have a great day everyone.

Comment by Debbie (Stephen's mom) on September 20, 2011 at 9:04am: LOL we can spell things wrong and we still all understand what we are saying . LOL

Comment by Debbie (Stephen's mom) on September 20, 2011 at 9:03am: Carrie that is a really nice NEX I could of spent all day in there, they had everything. Yes the gas coupons really help don't they. Anything to help the sailors save money.

Comment by Debbie (Stephen's mom) on September 20, 2011 at 8:48am: Stevesmom we are glad you are here, there are not many of us but we are a good group. Some of us have gone to see our sailors so we have some information about the bases and how our sailors live. I was always worried about the sailors being safe and I saw how you get on those base believe me no one is getting on, on Capo OMG it is impossible for anyone to get on, in the front in the little house they is a man with a machine gun hiding (Stephen has done that several times) so don't worry about them. LOL

Comment by Pam on September 19, 2011 at 11:30am: Donna - good for him and yes from eveything I hear support side is much better with more options. Good luck to your son!

Comment by Debbie (Stephen's mom) on September 19, 2011 at 10:14am: Oh that is the nicer base, it is bigger the NEX is much bigger, they have a bowling alley and a place to see movies, it is a nice base. It has a school for the kids and a play ground there also.

Comment by Debbie (Stephen's mom) on September 16, 2011 at 10:37am: Welcome home Carrie! I love pictures.

Comment by Debbie (Stephen's mom) on September 15, 2011 at 12:59pm: I think Stephen is kind of close to the post office, boy we should see if we could get these boys together, it has been a long time since I have asked Stephen to look for someone. LOL Could the class be different in their jobs? I know Stephen is an E4 Petty Officier first class. You are not a Petty Officier until you are an E4 that I know.

Comment by Pam on September 15, 2011 at 12:51pm: I believe it goes E-4 as Third Class, E-5 is Second Class and E-6 is First Class. I had to google it since I'm still learning all the Navy stuff. Yep, Jamie is at Capo. I don't know what building he is in, but I do know it's across the courtyard from the clinic.

Comment by Debbie (Stephen's mom) on September 15, 2011 at 12:13pm: Pam I did not know that I thought he was on Support Side, do you know what building he is in? I will send him my prays E5 test was last week and Stephen took that, so my fingers are crossed for all of them. I thought he would be Petty Office First Class, because if Stephen passes E5 he will be Petty Officer Second Class, I think I have that right, correct me if I am wrong.
