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."

Monica:I will surely take some pictures for ya! I just told Matt earlier that I am very excited to meet James and his other few roommates! I will most definitely snap as many as I can!

Doreen: Matt texts me every morning, calls during lunch break and we talk several times at night! I guess that's one advantage to it being my husband! LOL He knows if he doesn't call, then he'll get beat up HAHA just kidding!
But he was going to take test #6 after lunch so I have no clue if he passed or not yet?!

YAY Janice! Matt is taking his last test right now-should be done in a few minutes!!! WOOHOO

I wasn't going to go to the pinning but he wants me there so I filed out taxes and that is how I am able to go! He told me that this was a way bigger deal than bootcamp graduation(to him) So, I couldn't say no, and plus I get 2 days w/my hubby alone!! LOL

Cool...Matt passed 4 & 5 today! YAY =)

Is anyone going to the pinning ceremony on Feb 26th? Matt told me he really wants me there, so of course I will be going!

Matt passed test #4 this morning and was more than halfway thru the material for test #5! Hoping he passes test 5 today and he can do test 6 in the morning and be DONE!

Janice: WOW, Cate is on her last test? Matt still has 3 to go! He was trying to get thru test 4 & 5 today b/c yesterday was a short day for him! He is very stressed out b/c he is VERY easily distracted and it's hard for him to stay focused that long! I am praying hard that he makes it through these last few tests and can still graduate Feb 26th!!!
Comment by Tabitha on February 8, 2010 at 10:26am
