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 made the pies in jars. 2 blueberry, 2 cherry and 2 apple so I am real anxious to find out hoe they turned out. They looked good, but you never know. I t was a real blast making them and packing these last boxes. My daughter and mom even helped, because of the amount of baking and dehydrating we did. The dehydrating was for the beef jerky that we made.

Comment by navynana on March 20, 2011 at 11:00pm
We're all anxious for the packages to arrive. Maybe this week.. at least for the first ones we sent.
Comment by Michelle on March 20, 2011 at 10:44pm

Well just finished packing 4 large boxes, two for my son and two for his buddy on the Boxer so they will go out in the mail tomorrow. As of Friday he still had not received any mail.

 

Saw the pictures on fb they were really cool

Comment by cheffiona on March 20, 2011 at 7:16pm
@dogwalker its fine np  B does have a rate!  I think she has about 4 weeks left in the galley then back to her original job!
Comment by dogwalker on March 20, 2011 at 5:29pm
Sorry, not FN's but fireman in general. It's repairs job.
Comment by dogwalker on March 20, 2011 at 5:28pm
I didn't mean to sound rude or confuse you but an ENFN is when you don't actually have a designated rate. Generally, FN's are HT's or something of the sort. I was just unclear on what exactly cranking was. Thank you though.
