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 WestonsMom (FL A School) on August 24, 2011 at 8:35pm: Desiree...I know you loved hearing that! My son is also older (22). He said that most SR's have JUST graduated and it's almost like high school all over again! lol

Comment by desireenavygf (Ship 11 DIV 322) on August 24, 2011 at 8:29pm: hahaha thats great westonsmom isnt it nice to see that they miss us as much as we miss them. My sr said that the other sr's asked him why he doesnt talk about any sr girls. my sr said he told them that the only women he wants is at home. He said they asked him if he was gay hahahahaha i laughed when i heard that. He said he told them that his older then most of them there and he knows why he is there and he is focus on his goal. It was so nice to see how much he has grown as man in just this little bit of time. God i love him :)

Comment by WestonsMom (FL A School) on August 24, 2011 at 8:08pm: Thanks Christa... for everything!

Comment by Christa (Proud Navy Mom) on August 24, 2011 at 8:04pm: I am so very happy for you WestonsMom!!!!!

Comment by WestonsMom (FL A School) on August 24, 2011 at 8:01pm: sorry for posting late...HE CALLED! I was soooo happy to hear his voice and actually "hear" that he was doing good. His bottom wisdom teeth were pulled and got a couple days to rest. He got a rash from the dog tags and some blisters on his heels but went to dr and no big deal. He passed swim test. Failed PFA(?) by 11 points BUT I know he will get it next time! He has mentioned a couple people that are in his section. He made friends really fast. They seem to all be buddies now! He complained about the bed and the pillow but says it's still better than his here! lol I mailed a musical card to him and he said it was great and even thanked me! He said him and the others had a little (short) dance party! Now he wants me to send lyrics because he gets songs stuck in his head! lol OH BEST PART....he said the section kept messing up and he told them they better straighten up cause he wanted to call his mama!!! He said "that's right, I'm not afraid to admit I'm a mama's boy"!! OMG I cried and laughed at the same time! I absolutely LOVE that child of mine!
