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 Judi(NavyMom) on October 5, 2011 at 8:57pm: nsjc04- Oh No!! I am so sorry!! Is she going to be OK?

Comment by Sonja on October 5, 2011 at 8:53pm: oh my, I just got a call from my SR, she just sprained her ankle and failed her test, so now they postponed her PIR. I am so upset, so was she.

Comment by cakes-navysis on October 5, 2011 at 8:29pm: I wish I knew 948. Mail day is usually tomorrow me, last chance at getting a letter and info.

Comment by diannep on October 5, 2011 at 8:21pm: I only have 6 divisions with BattleStations dates. Are there more who have been reported to you all? I have 341-344 and 820/821. Let me and Proud2baNavyMom know if you have them. Just message!

Comment by Lala Ribbon Queen PIR Ribbons on October 5, 2011 at 7:36pm: MandySue- It is not too late to order ribbons. If you pay tonight with PayPal they will ship tomorrow. I tried several times to reply to your email on this site but for some reason right now I cannot reply to any emails. I sent you a message to your regular email address.

Is anyone else having problems with emails on this site?

Comment by diannep on October 5, 2011 at 6:31pm: Hard day for her today...very confused, but I was told it was normal for where she is right now. But hard on me to see such a "sharp" mind being so delerious. Hard road...but so thankful that my dad is well cared for by wonderful caretakers hired this week! Monitoring their mail, phone calls, etc...will be challenging enough. Thanks for prayers!

Leah, I will message you 343's BS date. This will be for 341-344, from info I have received.

Comment by proud2baNavyMom on October 4, 2011 at 8:13pm: Dianne glad to hear your mom is doing better will pray she does not fire the care takers. My situation is similar. FIL was in heart failure not respiratory failure, but it was due to poor oxygen levels. He won't quit smoking and is copd and emphasema as well as CHF. He is not going to have much of a choice now LOL we are telling him that he is going to have to let us help and that is all there is to it. Lets see how well that goes over in the next couple of days LOL. My prayers are continually going up for you and your family as well as all of our SR's going through battlestations.

Comment by FireTeamLeaderWife aka FTLW on October 4, 2011 at 6:59pm: DIANNE!!!

...2!

Thank God you found her! Glad she came through surgery okay. If she fires them then she is feeling GOOD! HA...but not good for you!

Praying for you!

Comment by diannep on October 4, 2011 at 6:34pm: Miss everyone! Have been off for a few days. Found my mom on the floor of her bedroom on Sat...after several days of vomiting. Couldn't get up...very weak (and she is a very healthy strong lady). Called Rescue over her protests. My demented Dad was in the other room, totally unaware, even when Rescue came into the house and removed her. Having to shuffle help into place for them with caretakers and be with Mom (had surgery last night)...it is killing me, but hoping it will be better. Please pray that my mom doesn't get home and fire the 4 caretakers I have for Dad...after I worked SO HARD to get them! UGH!

Comment by FireTeamLeaderWife aka FTLW on October 4, 2011 at 4:40pm: Leah - I bumped up the Battlestations discussion but I will give you the direct link to read about it. It will explain when they usually start for a TG.
