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."

First one doing sit ups on the left!!!!! I have enlarged it HUGE and I am so positive. It is amazing to see him. I am so excited now I can't contain myself. Prayers for all our recruits that are becoming, and soon to be, sailors! It's not long now friends...

Comment by julie067 on February 9, 2011 at 9:42pm: In the picture # 24 of 2/4 PIR is her group of colorguards and rifles, they will be stopping in front of the stands after graduation (camera shots). So sit in front of the flag if your child is in that group. She also confirmed a phone call on the 14th.

Comment by julie067 on February 9, 2011 at 7:36pm: It's letter day!! She talked about the storm and how they were told they could sleep in their parka liners if they wanted too. And the 7 foot snowdrifts, said she had seen alot of storms in Minnesota, but this one didn't compare! They did not do the gas chamber last week, they were told there wasn't enough time. In their downtime, hair was trimmed and were able to go to bed early, because of no electricity.They did great at marlins pike?? I think thats tying up the ship. That most people there are from Florida,Cali and Texas. she said the Honor Guard did a great job on their first graduation. Annnd....They have been doing their Graduation Performace!!!! She said everyone is anxious to move on. Positive letter, they sound like a team. And they can't wait to see us at graduation!!
