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 Lorraine on March 12, 2011 at 9:38am: I am so sorry for your loss.Your family will be in my prayers. It's so nice that Will will be able to pay his respects to his Grandfather. How wonderful that the Red Cross did this all for your family.

Comment by Emptynestnow SHIP 03 DIV 82 on March 12, 2011 at 9:01am: I'm leaving now for the airport to pick up my Sailor Apprentice, Will. My father inlaw died on Friday, and the funeral is Monday. I called the Red Cross to ask about whether Will would be allowed home for this. I first called them at 3pm yesterday, and at 11pm Will told us that he was coming home! They made arrangements for him, got him an unbelievable ticket price and drove him to the airport! He gets to be home for a week. I am so very thankful!

Comment by Lorraine on February 26, 2011 at 1:46pm: Jenny,

If you send me your e-mail address, I'll send you the picture. Hope you are doing well.

Comment by JennyL on February 25, 2011 at 10:23pm: What an awesome weekend it was! And it was great meeting you guys! Post the picture when you can, it would be great to see! : )

Comment by Lorraine on February 16, 2011 at 10:17pm: Lisa.

I believe, after watching the PIR of last weel that they will be wearing blues(winter garb) and yellow scarves. Spoke to Ryan also. He is so excited and said the same as you said. Oh, can't wit to see my BABY BOY!!!

Comment by Tchrmom Lisa on February 16, 2011 at 9:03pm: I'm getting spoiled! Just spoke to my Sailor son again! That's twice in 6 days!! They earned CNO (only 3 divisions got it, don't ask me what it stands for, I don't remember), got ALL flags, didn't end up with Hall of Fame (yet the division that did earn it didn't earn as many flags as 082). He said they took too many compartment hits and demerits (or something) which cost them Hall of Fame. They ARE an Honor Division. All in all, they are AWESOME!!! They will be the 9the division entering the hall on Friday morning. Get this, they will ALL be wearing ski masks or scarves as they enter. As though 1000 Sailors all dressed the same, with the same haircuts, wasn't making it hard enough to find our kids!! Thanks! I CAN"T WAIT!!!

Comment by bsmom on February 16, 2011 at 8:55pm: See you all soon!!! Wow, what a "mind blowing" experience this has been! Extra hair color...think I have a lot more grey. I can't wait to meet you all and all of our sailors!

See you in CHI Town!!

Comment by Lori( Ship 03 Division 82) on February 16, 2011 at 3:53pm: I hope everyone has a safe trip..I just got off of work and now the packin begins !!! Can't wait to meet all of you !!!
