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."

If anyone here can contact their Sailor and tell them to get a message to my son to call me as SOON as possible.... I really need to talk to him. It's very important. I know I can't write his name here, can I?

Hey Ladies, I have a co-worker who's son is retiring from the Air Force after 25 years. I believe he is a Chief Master Sergeant. She would to know if anyone has any idea as to what she could give him as a present at the party. Any suggestions? Heard from my Sailor this morning. What a way to start my day!

Wonderful pictures being posted on Facebook! The pictures show sailors with the orphanage kids, and they looked so happy. It is nice to see how they are helping out the children. It provides them a sense of pride! Good work!

Talked to my son yesterday and he told us that they visited an orphanage and he gave out the See's suckers I had sent him. He told us about their disabilities and about one little boy that was mentally disabled he spent some time with and took pictures with him. My husband knew that they were going to be visiting the orphanage and wanted to tell our son to seek out that one child that is shy or the one that doesn't get the attention but he never got the chance to. So proud that he figured that out on his own. Sounds like he had some amazing experiences in port!

Thank you Amy!! And thank you EVERYONE for keeping us all informed. I still have not heard a word from my son. I'm not worried...I know he's ok. But I miss him bad. I sent him his care package of cookies and junkfood...I KNOW he'll love it. Let's see 16 hrs ahead of us...that makes it 10:30pm Wed. here and 2:30pm Thursday there! wow! Thanks for the heads up on that one! :-)
