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."

SmileyCentral.com  DramaSoul...here is your Smiley.

To embed html codes (emoticons, widgets, videos etc):

First...click on the spot in your post where you want the item to be placed. This is important because if you don't, it won't... or it will post the last place your cursor was...then you have to remove it and start all over.

Next, click the "Embed media" icon in the toolbar in the Comment box here. It is the third one over. The first is link ; then next to that is where you "add a picture"...then the Embed media icon.

Now open up another tab on your computer. Search for whatever you want to embed and copy the html code. It's a little different for each one. (For youtubes it is the "share" button and then the "embed" one. It highlights the code automatically)

Now, come back to the Embed media box and paste it in. Click "OK"

Okay, I tried to put a smiley in and it didn't work.  Gotta figure this out....

Comment by DramaSoul on July 12, 2012 at 11:54pm

Jack...you may want to accessorize with a long flowing skirt for the tea...black and white with a splash of the same color as the leotard.  Also a flower in your hair of the same color would pull it all together.  And high tops are just not okay with that ensemble...just not!

As to a submarine...I am afraid I am with B'snukemom.  I can barely handle the ones at Disneyland.  In Portland we have a sub at OMSI (Oregon Museum of Science and Industry) docked on the Willamette river.  It's the Blueback and it was used in "The Hunt for Red October" (love that film!).  I toured it with my son a few years ago and couldn't wait to get off.  Claustrophobia anyone?!!

AbbyBlue...thanks for the poem...

And I wanna thank you guys for the giggles...it was a difficult day and to come home and check this out and laugh out loud...yay!!! Of course my eyeballs may be permanently damaged but it was well worth it!

SmileyCentral.com JACK you have wear that ??

Comment by B'sNukeMoM⚓️MMN(Vet) on July 12, 2012 at 2:15pm

OMG - my eyes! Jack - when did you let yourself go like that?

Concernedad - there's no way I'm getting on a sub - I can barely handle the submarines at Disneyland!

 

Comment by Concernedad on July 12, 2012 at 1:47pm

Hey, I applaud Jack's fashion sense. It's not everyone who can pull off wearing that outfit.

Comment by Denise - browns57 on July 12, 2012 at 1:44pm

I don't think I could do a sub but there are 200 sailors on my sons Frigate!  Hey Concernedad you know what they say about paybacks, Jack might have one for you!
