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."

So can the NEX card be used at McDonalds on base? Maybe sending them a Visa card would be better. Did they get a debit card when they opened their Navy Federal Credit Union account? I never thought to ask this question in letters or when we talked.

Great info - I had no idea about this.

Adamsmom,  Thanks so much for letting us know about battlestations - my son wasn't sure.

Thanks Sharon.

Adamsmom- I don't think you have to be a guest of the Ramada to attend, it's just that you don't get the free drink coupons.

I received a phone call from my son as well. It was such a nice surprise to hear from him. He told me Battle Stations was the 24th, so we sould be getting a phone call the morning of the 25th. I am so happy to hear as a division they are all coming together. I have a question regarding the meet and greet at the Ramada Inn, do you have to stay at the Ramada Inn to go to the meet & greet?
Comment by ChrisNukeEMmom on January 10, 2011 at 12:47pm
me neither
Comment by Sharon*MA mom* on January 10, 2011 at 10:54am
Yes, Chris "yay for our boys!". I wasn't counting on a phone call until Battlestations :)
Comment by ChrisNukeEMmom on January 10, 2011 at 10:07am
One more thing my son said was they did REALLY well in drill - 4.8 out of 5 and the chief was smiling from ear to ear.  He was so proud of them he said they earned the phone call.  Yay for our boys!

Hikermom-

So sorry you missed his call. My son said that they were doing very well as a division. He sounded upbeat and said they are ALL working hard.
