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."

@cheffiona that is very nice of you. It sounds like you have raised a very wonderful young lady!
Comment by cheffiona on March 6, 2011 at 1:06pm
Just got done with fb chatting with her and as she is still doing the cranking she is on the meal line now and said everybody knows her even the marines I wont put her last name but shes the tall pretty one on the meal line she is very sociable with everyone and said that if you need to get hold of sailor she will happily pass on a message etc if you want them to email, of course I cannot guarantee when she will see them to tell them but there are quite a few crew members on board she is happy to do this so just let me know!

Good morning everyone, hope you are all doing well and hearing from your sailors!  Bridgette is sharing her care packages with her fellow sailors, very generous young woman is my daughter and am so proud of her!  Im gonna try and send a couple of care packages to her to give to those sailors that dont get any! 

 

Have a great day all!  If anyone on here has a sailor in the galley and they have not heard from them then let me know and I will ask her to have them email you!

I wont say the whole ship because she may not be able to speak to them but ill see if she can!!

I have been very lucky. I have gotten an email everyday from my son. They are usually very short about one or two lines. Just about how he is doing mostly. I email him about how things are at home and how proud I am of him and how much I love him. I will have to ask if he has received his package yet.

@cheffiona - I think their server was not available at the time. When I got home last night it had been sent. Thanks.
Comment by cheffiona on March 5, 2011 at 9:50am

Yes i am impressed that they got there so quick, she was happy to get it and came on last on to fb the internet was working at that point its really just hit and miss if they can get a signal!  But I missed that one as I had gone to bed early this week with one thing and another has been stressful and I needed some sleep!  And I did sleep and hopefully can back to normal!
