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 ZachsinNavy!mom on January 22, 2011 at 3:43pm: Pink- I am so glad he is feeling better. What did they determine that he has? Please let us know when you get the address for his bunkmate. Spending my weekend cleaning house and catching up with chores.

Comment by pinkaboo202 - Ship 07, Div 47 on January 22, 2011 at 3:21pm: Greetings everyone. I haven't been on for a few days. Thank you guys so much for all of the well wishes and encouragement.

My son is still on hold on Ship 5. He was cleared by one doctor, but is now waiting to see if he can get an approval for a medical waiver because what he has could have long term effects. He won't know until next week. However, he says he feels great and the pain and bruising in his legs have practically disappeared. He's is a little disappointed because he really wanted to start A school with his shipmates.

As for his bunkmate, I don't have an address for him yet. He said he was headed to Texas. As soon as I get an address for him, I will definitely share it. Funny thing is, he's originally from my area. I told him if he ever comes this way, he has a place to stay.

Comment by BobbieChris on January 21, 2011 at 10:43am: Pink

We are all praying for your son. Your son's bunkmate do you know where he was going to A school? We would like to stay in contact with him and his success. Thanks and please keep us posted about your son.

Comment by BarbAnn(Ship 7 DIV 047) on January 21, 2011 at 10:25am: Pink we are praying in Texas for you and your son. Please keep us posted...

Comment by ZachsinNavy!mom on January 20, 2011 at 1:16pm: Pink-

I think Ginny means we have a NAVY of Prayer Warriors in NC to pray for your son! Thanks for the pictures as well. If you can send the young man's address to us privately, I'm sure there are lots of mom's that could continue to write and support him. As a social worker, I know lots of young people in his situation and I'm sure he could use the continued support.

Comment by debbiel on January 20, 2011 at 8:54am: Pink - I am sorry to hear about your son. Hopefully they are being overly cautious and it is not that serious. Please keep us posted.

Comment by Mossgirl4 on January 20, 2011 at 12:18am: Pink - I am so sorry - he has really been on my mind and I will continue to pray hard for his good health. Hang in there and keep us posted!

Comment by Ginnyfromthelake Ship 07 Div 047 on January 19, 2011 at 10:44pm: Pink - we are praying here in NC. I've got an army of "prayer warriors" that I'll put on this right away.
