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 WhiteClay Ship 2 Div 913 on January 20, 2011 at 10:56pm: I'm going to bed...but keep me in the loop about the monogram thing!

Comment by Sailormom21811 on January 20, 2011 at 10:45pm: D

Darnell, Do you have any ideas about how we should monogram? Just 913, or something more? I hope all the "girls" want to do so, too. Doing things like this will help me feel better, because my energy is focused on him. Missing him bunches and I agree, others don't understand...It is all I can think about. The letters help but by Thursday, mail "from him" day, I am usually waiting in the street for the mailman. Georgia has been mild these past few days and Fl. has been for maria, I hope you are getting a break in the cold! -8 and snowing in Chicago!

Talk soon,

denise

Comment by Sailormom21811 on January 20, 2011 at 10:34pm: Maria, I didn't receive mail yet either. I expect it to be a day late because of the holiday. His Grandmother got a letter today so I am hoping for tomorrow! Starting to get hard to leave the phone again. I hope they get to call again soon. Tough day today for me...

79 degrees, wow! That makes it tough to shop for Chicago clothes, -8 there today and snow. Speaking of, what airport are you using? We are getting conflicting stories on the best one to use for bad weather, should it occur. Hoping to make reservations tomorrow.

Working 6 days, what do you do? OH, I hope Jonathan gets to call on his Birthday too. That would be the best!

I will stay in touch.

Comment by Sailormom21811 on January 20, 2011 at 1:14am: Yes, I am fretting already about the weather. We are coming from Augusta, GA. Will go through Atlanta which does get colder weather than us and snow. I hope we don't have any problems there or landing in Chicago. What will your trip be like?

Comment by Darnell on January 20, 2011 at 12:46am: Ladies,

I think that monogram idea is great. Denise where are coming from? Must be warm there. I kind of wish we had graduation was somewhere warm. Chicago just like Minnesota. COLD
