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."

thats too sweet!!! were planning on going on our honeymoon when they come back, were going to Disney World in Florida. So im planning that while he is gone!!
Comment by ryanswifey on February 8, 2010 at 8:21pm
yea. the day he left we had only been married 6 months so we are still in the newlywed stage and it was really hard to say bye. i have had my rough days but some days are wayyyyyyy better than others. i had one semester left at school so im finishing up that and i have picked up different things to do to help pass the time, but it never seems to go by fast enough. the first three weeks, have gone by rather quick but not quick enough for me lol. next thing i know though it will be august and time to plan homecoming! im making alot of new friends though who are in the same situation so that is helping alot too...atleast i know im not the only one crying! lol

yea thats what we all figured....but im gonna keep my fingers crossed...in the miracle that ill see my hubby before August!
Comment by ryanswifey on February 8, 2010 at 8:07pm
yea i kinda figured they wouldnt come home...but it was something to maybe hope for. it kinda made my days go by quicker, because i was waiting for the 9th to get here to find out something, so it helped a little. my hubby said that he heard there wouldnt be an extension becuase of the shape the ship is in and the fact that they are gonna start decom. when they get home so who knows. just gotta take it one day at a time...and stay nothing but positive...thats the only thing thats gonna get me through this..considering its our first deployment together.
