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."

Our son arrived in May. He joined them at the end of their long deployment.

Mines been there almost a year and a half.  When I did the math I was in disbelief!  He just reenlisted.  It's been three years and eight months since he enlisted.  He was in school in South Carolina and NY for two years.

So Glad to hear they had all the "Fixens & Trimmens" of a Thanksgiving Feast!!   ;)

Comment by Subwife2002 on November 30, 2013 at 11:35am

Welcome Kathyb!!

I think i should have gotten one on Thanksgiving. I got an email last night and noticed I'm missing a number inbetween my last email and this one. So it would make sense. Atleast all is good and they ate what the boat calls Thanksgiving food HAHA!
