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."

Not sure on what group to announce this but my nephew, a CRNA in the Army, was pinned Lt. Col on last Saturday.  So proud of him.  He is the one who inspired my son to become a Corpsman.SmileyCentral.com

FWIW, I note both Mayflower and her recommended site is in the same city, so until I learn differently, I'm going to assume Mayflower is merely spamming. I note her entire profile is marked on private.

Comment by Concernedad on September 4, 2012 at 12:14pm

Mayflower, I certainly hope you're not spamming on my page. The brig hasn't been cleaned out in a while.

Comment by abbyblue on September 4, 2012 at 11:29am

OK where are all the men you get a group going and then go back to your little hide out. dont be strangers SmileyCentral.com

As a Navy Mom, I am always looking for excellent websites that relate to or honor our military. I found this terrific site called LittleFeatsJewelry.com. They sell all kinds of Military Jewelry - with quite a few NAVY designs. Check it out!

Sorry Navy didn't do well today but USC is beating Hawaii so far in the second quarter it's 26-0.  Fight on!!!

Thanks, AbbyBlue!  I was by a river on Saturday night, sitting on the deck at my friend's house looking up at the stars.  We were winkin' a lot and they winked back.

the next time you walk outside on a clear night and see the moon smiling down at you, think of Neil Armstrong and give him a wink

Thanks Drama! I am going to get that book! I think I'll "study" in secret and surprise him!
Comment by DramaSoul on August 24, 2012 at 11:13pm

Oh, BTW, I was there the night Ron Ayala kicked the field goal as time expired that sent the Trojans to the Rose Bowl.  And....I remember watching Jim Plunkett throw that football to Randy Vataha (sp?).  It traveled 50 yards IN THE AIR.  Great memories as I learned about football.
