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."

Comment by DramaSoul on July 30, 2013 at 9:35pm: You can send packages and letters and there is no restriction on envelope color. Be aware that they are out in the field a lot and they don't always get mail in a timely fashion. My son's Stryker socks were there for 4 weeks before the Petty Officer PO got around to pick them up.

Comment by power0806 on July 30, 2013 at 9:20pm: My HN - E3 sailor just made it into CP and started FMTB this week. I've seen some videos and I have no idea how the all do this! Does anyone know if we are back to just white envelopes or can care packages be sent to them?

Comment by medic mom on July 12, 2013 at 12:02pm: Happy Friday all! Sorry that I have been absent as of late. Things are a little crazy at my house right now. Thought I would check in and welcome all the new people. I am just waiting for my son to get home now. Next month he will be home from his first deployment so I am anxiously awaiting that. Hope you all have a great day.

Comment by DramaSoul on May 27, 2013 at 12:29pm: Thanks Tenn Navy Mom for posting this. So true...their sacrifice is not forgotten. When at Anderson Hall last year, I spent time reading each and everyone of the memorials posted on the wall. So powerful.

Comment by medic mom on May 12, 2013 at 8:12am: First and foremost HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY to all you great moms out there. Second it finally happened. He got officially got his pin. He can wear it proudly now. Took them over 3 weeks to finally get the paperwork through and get the ceremony done. One happy mommy today. I have a great weekend so far. My youngest graduated yesterday from high school and today my corpsman got his FMF pin. What a wonderful weekend it has been. Have a wonderful day everyone.

Comment by DramaSoul on May 7, 2013 at 12:12am: medic mom...CONGRATS and BRAVO ZULU on your son's accomplishment!

Comment by medic mom on April 27, 2013 at 6:58pm: Frustration setting in. My son earned his FMF pin last week. He is still waiting for the ceremony and certificate. Hoping that it happens soon for him. Will keep you updated.

Comment by Vipergirl on April 27, 2013 at 6:21pm: Congratulations to your son for all his hard work.

Hi Marcy, I'm glad to be here...:-) For those that don't know me, my son is an FMF Corpsman who deployed in 2011 to the sandbox and is headed back to the sandbox now for his 2nd deployment!
