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 kathyrc(Ship03DIV175)PIR 6/08/12 on May 28, 2012 at 10:15pm: Sarahs Mom - How sweet! You sure raised a great girl, you should be very proud.

Comment by kathyrc(Ship03DIV175)PIR 6/08/12 on May 28, 2012 at 10:02pm: Jenn724 - Congrats!!

Comment by kathyrc(Ship03DIV175)PIR 6/08/12 on May 28, 2012 at 10:01pm: C's proud Mom - So happy you got your call too!! It was great wasn't it? Just makes things much easier...

Comment by SarahsMom(Ship03/Div176) on May 28, 2012 at 8:38pm: s_amburgey, good for you!! It's just the Mom in us..

Comment by SarahsMom(Ship03/Div176) on May 28, 2012 at 8:16pm: Yes very cute shoes. I agree though, stick some flats on until you get there.You don't want to have sore feet on your wedding day!!

Comment by diannep on May 28, 2012 at 8:13pm: Extremely cute shoes! But a suggestion....carry them with you to PIR to put on in the hall and wear more comfortable shoes to walk in! There is a pretty decent amount of walking you will do to get there. So unless these shoes are very very comfortable, you may want to "change" them once you arrive!

Comment by SarahsMom(Ship03/Div176) on May 28, 2012 at 7:40pm: Thanks diannep and JessicaB, it just reminds us that there are thoughtful young adults out there.

God bless all our SR's this next week!

Comment by NormaH on May 28, 2012 at 6:40pm: Calls from Div 174! So glad to hear from him! Please send positive thoughts their way as they take their final test and go through Battlestations ! Good luck!

Comment by diannep on May 28, 2012 at 6:26pm: I agree with Jessica, SarahsMom. What a wonderful thing to do for her!

Comment by SarahsMom(Ship03/Div176) on May 28, 2012 at 6:04pm: Good afternoon all. I too had a call this morning. We talked almost an hour. She sounded great! I was so proud of her,a fellow SR did not have their phone card and was not going to get to make a call but my SR bought her a phone card so she could call home!! She is a great kid!

Happy Memorial Day to you all and I cannot wait to meet you next week!!!
