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 Sandy's_sailor son on September 25, 2011 at 12:20pm: DRodsmom. Please don't tell your SR until after battle stations. In fact. I would wait for PIR. I think it will upset your son since he can't be there for his Gma. I think in your case since the surgery went well. It would be better for your son to speak to his Gma while he is with you. At least you can re-assure him that everything is ok.

Explain this to your mom. I know she will understand.

Comment by desireenavygf (Ship 11 DIV 322) on September 25, 2011 at 12:17pm: Drod if your going to tell him wait until after battlestation. He needs to be able to stay focus.

Comment by DRod's mom (HM-S.A.) on September 25, 2011 at 12:05pm: Ladies, I need advice my SR's Gma had her heart surg on Friday. I haven't told him but she wants to talk to him. I believe it is the pain talking but it is tarring me apart. He is div 323 so I guess he hasnt done BS yet. Help! I am torn between the 2 people I love most :(

Comment by navymomsrock on September 25, 2011 at 11:19am: Congratulations Giselle to you and your SR. That is great. I am so glad for you both. Looking forward to meeting all of you at PIR.

Comment by Micaela (AO Wife) on September 25, 2011 at 10:44am: Omg.....you ladies are killing me. If I just went through the posts and started crying, i am going to be a wreck at PIR. lol either I need to get it all out of my system now or Im going to look "swollen puffy eyed" when I see my SR for the first time in 9 weeks!!! Moral of the story: Thank You all and I love you all :)

Comment by diannep on September 25, 2011 at 10:31am: Thanks for the kind words, horselover! We N4Moms love helping out!
