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 Lamarmama 09/139 on March 10, 2011 at 1:05pm: I see you are from Richardson, I am orginally from Plano, but now reside in Temple. I see a future road trip for us if you want to carpool. LOL

Comment by quiltblue on March 10, 2011 at 1:01pm: Lamarmama... yes my son is going to SC! His PIR is 4/1/11 so I think he is just ahead of yours. He wants EM or ET, so we are still waiting to hear which one he qualifies for. It is so great to find he will have other TEXANS to hang with!

Comment by Brenda Sue on March 10, 2011 at 12:07pm: So sad for those families!

Thanks for informing us! Baytown is only 45 minutes from me!

Comment by Brenda Sue on March 10, 2011 at 12:06pm: Can we meet at 6:00 - is that late enough for everyone?

Of couse, husbands are invited - they have to eat also!

But. . . they need to bring some rich, handsome (over 50) friends with them for all the single ladies!

Comment by TexasSailorMom on March 10, 2011 at 11:58am: Would love to join the night at Outback. Anyone from the west side of Houston (I'm in Katy) want to carpool?

What time are we meeting?

Is it just us moms or do the dads come too?

Comment by TexasSailorMom on March 10, 2011 at 11:55am: Heartbreaking news- Prayers for the Shirar and Flint families.

Comment by Lamarmama 09/139 on March 10, 2011 at 10:08am: Are there any other mom's here who's sailor will be going on to NUKE school in SC?

Comment by Alysia-Redsmom (VQ-4/ATO) on March 10, 2011 at 10:07am: Hello sunshine.....it's a beautiful morning here in Htown!

Working half day and then off to the rodeo with the family...seeing Rascal Flatts :-)

Comment by txsailorsam-Donna on March 10, 2011 at 8:45am: 18th sounds good.

Comment by Matt's Mom/Cathy on March 10, 2011 at 12:44am: Yes I can come on the 18th. I have to take my MIL for a follow up on the eye surgery that day in Houston but the appt is before lunch so I should be home by 3.
