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 cluebee on October 2, 2011 at 7:13pm: Hi ladies! I, too, miss this group. The MA A school group just isn't all that active. I think there are only maybe 6 or so of us who actually have loved ones there right now. He had his first written and practical test on Friday and passed both - woohoo! Only a couple more weeks until I get to see him again :D

I hope all is well with everyone!

Comment by sbarber on September 30, 2011 at 9:41pm: Hey ya"ll glad everyone is doing good. I'm glad they are all doing well and happy. My son got his first off base liberty today God Bless the girls in MS LOL and yes I had to UPS clothes too lol but they aren't fitting well so he's going shopping guess he lost a few inches in boot camp which he did not that he needed to. Bet he gains some back tonight eating out. Have a great weekend everyone.

Comment by wlbradford (Rota Spain) on September 28, 2011 at 1:45pm: I know that's right!!! Julie, when is the baby shower?

Comment by Julie on September 28, 2011 at 1:40pm: Hello all! Haven't been on for...quiet awhile. Like most of you out there, I have been very busy since PIR. Planning for a babyshower. Sisters birthday, and now a big move! I will be moving up with my fiance on October 21st. I was iffy about the move at first, but he talked to his cheifs and petty officers and they all seem to be very cool with me coming down. I don't think school starts for him for another week. So hoping IT school goes well for him. Like Kimmie said, I found the A School site on here, but its just not the same as all of you guys!

I hope everyone else has been having good days now that the mailman stalking days are over! (: Thank god for that!
