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."

My last letter was not good again. I have been praying everyday constantly. She is hanging in there but she is very tired and lonely. It seems I haven't taken a breath since she left. Now praying I can breathe again when I see her walk in a SAILOR! Keep pushing mija, it's almost over!

Thanks everyone! So proud of my SR I can't hardly stand it. Did everyone else get letters this week? Any other news would be great. I have asked about battlestations, but don't know the date yet.

Letters yesterday! Our division earned the scholorship flag (for academics)! They got a 4.1 overall score. Not enough to earn a phone call, but still good! My daughter was moved from weapons PO to Section Leader due to a perfect rack inpection! Such a proud Mama right now! Go 940! I'm hoping to see her in some graduation picture today! Another round of Where's Waldo.

Hey Corina my dtr is in the flag thing too. She said she is carrying Colorado flag.
Comment by Corina on July 27, 2011 at 8:00am
Doing well since the phone call. When she called she said mom, I wrote you a letter on Sunday but ignore it. She was really homesick but she was better. My daughter is one of the flags so I hope they will post pictures of PIR  so I can see her also. We are just a few days away. Keep praying! Battlestations should be that week of PIR, I read that somewhere.
