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 Kathy on June 2, 2013 at 7:17am: I just got a very short email from my son and he said that they only have 2 computers to send there emails out. So Katie to could be that your guy just is busy with work and it is hard to get on one of the computers.

Comment by karinabeana611 on June 1, 2013 at 10:45pm: I'm so sorry kbain6 :( I hope you get one soon!

Comment by captainkatie843 on June 1, 2013 at 10:39pm: Aww you guys. I'm Katie. I'm kind of upset you guys got emails i haven't i have not received one since April ):

Comment by donnab on June 1, 2013 at 9:18pm: That is great kbeana611, I hope to get another one soon.

Comment by karinabeana611 on June 1, 2013 at 6:35pm: More emails today!! :D So happy that they're up for more than just sending/receiving. :)

Comment by karinabeana611 on May 31, 2013 at 10:12pm: wow, Kathy that'd be awesome! I was thinking like Minnie, too. No matter what, tomorrow we can say that we'll get our first phone call next month (or this month if they do come back in June) :) :) Have a great weekend, everyone! :)

Comment by Minnie on May 31, 2013 at 3:34pm: Really? I got the feeling they wouldn't be back before 4th of July, but that could be my pessimism- I'd rather be happily surprised than disappointed!

Comment by Kathy on May 31, 2013 at 3:31pm: Now this is just a guess on my part I do not know if it is true but I figure they might be in some time in the middle or end of June. Now don't take my word on that because that is not set in stone. It just comes from my son being on 5 boat rides. If not fingers crossed that is the time frame.

Comment by donnab on May 30, 2013 at 8:00pm: Thanks Kathy I will let my son know about the discounts on a cruise, I have gotten 5 emails today, I am like kbeana611, I cried and laughed it has been an emotional day, I sure could use a hug from him right now. Thank you Lord for the emails and keeping them all safe.

Comment by karinabeana611 on May 30, 2013 at 7:15pm: thanks for the info, Kathy. :) It was so fun to get emails, today! I didn't know whether to laugh or cry so I did a little of both! :)
