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."

Now tell me how dip takes up space? It just sits on the chip.

 No missed calls here either.

I'm making stuffed mushrooms and hoping my son shaved those last 20 seconds off his time.  Yeah I cook when I'm stressed.

Me too Katies mom.  Ran down checked the all the phones after reading this.  My son had to shave 2 minutes off. I thought no way.  Waiting this long was cruel.  You said it well maybe the lord needed him tomorrow. I will pray extra for Jayson tonight. I wish I had your phone number lucy I'd give you a call.  As hard as this try to be positive that he'll make it tomorrow. He must be crushed and knowing he had to wait to call must have so hard for him. Did he call Haylie?

Oh no, lucy.  *hugs*  This has to be hard on both of you.  He has another chance to pass and I'm sure he's well motivated to do it!

He would have called you CTMom...it was US Government phone call! Don't think about it....he did fine. Good luck tonight to 216!!!!
Comment by CTmomof3 on June 27, 2011 at 9:09pm
What, what, what?? OMG I'm so sorry, you/he  must feel awful. I thought we were in the clear at this point..  Yes, why the heck wait till the last minute.  I hope he passes tomorrow.  Now I'm nervous about my son.

I am just feeling real speechless and shocked right now. If he misses it again, that is gonna be heartbreaking! I am thinking positive and I am praying real hard for him.....what else can I do? He said if he passes he will call me and if I don't hear from him, don't come! Thank you for kind words...please keep him in your prayers. Honestly, he sounded sick and when I asked him he said he was just upset.

Ladies...this may be the hardest thing to say but....I just got a call...Jayson missed his run Friday by a few seconds and he will not be doing Battle Station tonight. I am sick! He called 20 mins ago to tell me. He gets to run again in the.a.m. And if he passes he will do BS tomorrow night. So sad to hear him! And why did they just now let him call? I hope he passes and I hope to see you Thursday night. Meantime, good luck tonight guys! I am praying for you all!!!!
