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."

I want to add that I just read an update from my sailors PIR group & found that a sailor that PIRed with him has been hospitalized with Acute Tcell Luekemia/Lymphoma. Oh, the cancers..........I wish they would just go away!

Comment by HonorHim on March 2, 2011 at 9:48pm: praying

Comment by Rhonda8881 on March 2, 2011 at 7:35pm: I agree with HonorHim. Speaking what you desire can make things so. It does not work for everyone and sometimes just not in our time frame. But it does help you to be more positive about the situation. I have heard many times that people who speak out loud their need from our Lord, do receive their wish.

We will be positive in our prayers of Health and Healing for your son and for your family!!!

Comment by bryters ATI Whidbey Island on February 27, 2011 at 10:51pm: Prayers for your Family.

Comment by polli k on February 26, 2011 at 8:37pm: Aw prayers, hugs and kind thought are heading your way... If we trust in the Lord, all will be the way that they are meant to be and we have a good prayer chain going here.. Keeping the faith.
