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 Betsy, mom of Stennis sailor on August 15, 2011 at 10:00am: Dianne, I love it! Maybe he will hire someone to change you. lol

Comment by diannep on August 15, 2011 at 7:59am: Text received from my sailor son last night, out of the blue: "Just want you to know that I'll take care of you when you are old." When I asked if he would change diapers, his response was: "Don't push it."

He is a funny guy! :-)

Comment by clippercurl on August 15, 2011 at 12:01am: Im sure my parents will get my daughters forum letter. I moved to Michigan the same day and changed her address to gram and grandpa cause thats where her bank is. She put down if anything bad happen that they should contact her dad first cause she didnt think i could take the news. He isnt very nice to me. Will he get the forum letter?

Comment by FireTeamLeaderWife aka FTLW on August 14, 2011 at 5:34pm: Got it...I am...we are at Sea World...they honor the military during the Shamu show...makes me feklempt every time. Dear husband...darling is better!

Comment by diannep on August 14, 2011 at 3:25pm: Hmmm....I don't know. I'm thinking since it is already in the discussions, maybe leave it there? You can bump up discussions as usual when people ask. Just my humble opinion.

Now...go have fun with DH (does that stand for "darling husband?")

Comment by FireTeamLeaderWife aka FTLW on August 14, 2011 at 2:55pm: I noticed that earlier dianne..."pages" doesn't identify who posted the original...since only the creator of the group or am admin can add pages it must be assumed it is one of them.
So what do you think...should the info I post go over there or stay on the DF? I am fine either way.

Comment by Vonecia(Seabee)SHIP07/DIV327 on August 14, 2011 at 2:52pm: grrrrrr no form letter.... tomorrow will be a week since my SR left... I need more patience.

Comment by diannep on August 14, 2011 at 1:44pm: Not sure who posted the 946 page over to the side, but I started a Div 946 discussion for you all up top. So please join if you find you are in that division. Better to have the division groups up top in the DISCUSSION area rather than in the "pages," I believe.

Comment by Lala Ribbon Queen PIR Ribbons on August 14, 2011 at 1:04pm: I really like your countdown clock. I haven't seen that one before and it is cool :-)

I hope everyone has a wonderful Sunday. I am leaving in a while to go shopping for supplies to make the PIR ribbons. I will be back on here later this afternoon. Also have last minute school shopping for our 2 seniors this year.

Comment by FireTeamLeaderWife aka FTLW on August 14, 2011 at 12:57pm: aggiemom- okay...I see we have pages now. Normally I post all my info in the DF...but since the addition of "Pages" I experimented putting it over there. The DF have been the place for divisional discussions and Battlestations would probably be best over there.
So, that being said, would you like me to move all of my info over to the "Pages" section? You would need to make me an admin to manage it. It might keep things more organized. Let me know...I am on vacation and will be back on more regularly Monday evening.
