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."

From my daughter:

"Holy Cripes Mother! I must say it's a little excessive when my own Command
Master Chief drags me into his office to tell me that my entire family is
freaking out and that I'm practically super glued to a chair in front of a
computer to message everyone"

Hehehe, thank you everyone!!

Lol! Good luck! At least she knows that you care; )
Comment by NyteShayde on April 1, 2013 at 8:21pm

Ladies, thank you so much! I can't tell you how grateful I am. I think with enough nagging I should get an email with the question, "WHAT????" from my daughter. LOL

Comment by joirenee on April 1, 2013 at 8:10pm

NyteShyde I just sent your request to my son. Since I had to reach him through this website, you better be sure he will contact your daughter quickly. :)

Comment by spyder013 on April 1, 2013 at 4:36pm

So they're allowed to communicate with home? I haven't heard from my daughter in some time and I'm going a little stir crazy. If anyone communicates with the Shoup could they please contact GMSN Rachel Maurer and tell her to email her mom before she has to be institutionalized?

Yes. Skyped with daughter yesterday. Sounds like they had good Easter brunch and egg hunt. Also said community service was fun; ). May head out shortly but no real updates yet.
