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 Horselover SHIP 11 DIV 322 on September 6, 2011 at 8:14am: I SMILE Midway is approx. 1hr from GL.

Comment by milomom 946/HM A-School on September 5, 2011 at 9:45pm: Anyone wanting to do the Facebook contest......

hteb64 - this is from the 946 discussions

The contest goes fast! The RTC facebook admin folks post a picture on their wall. Just like you or I upload a picture to our facebook page. It'll be a distorted photo of some recruit activity.(For instance, the last two were: the gas chamber, and marlinspike) In order to guess the activity you have to post it as a comment on the picture. Whoever guesses right first, wins! I think the last winners got it in less than a minute.

Not sure how the holiday will affect this...

Here's the link for the contest rules for Monday:

Anyway, its fun ; )

Comment by Micaela (AO Wife) on September 5, 2011 at 8:07pm: Wow Lala, your daughter was stunning on her wedding day. I too am glad that nobody was hurt after the accident and hope that 40 years from now they look back and laugh about that day.....crazy how things happen sometimes but so glad everybody was ok. Best wishes to the new couple!

Comment by navymomsrock on September 5, 2011 at 6:58pm: Lala I am so sorry to hear about your daughter and new son-in-law. I am so glad they are OK. The wedding pictures were beautiful.

Comment by Lala Ribbon Queen PIR Ribbons on September 5, 2011 at 5:26pm: Thanks milomom, after paying almost $400 for a rental car for one day, they are finally on their way back to VA. I am sure it will be a long drive in this rain. Maybe it will slack off for them soon. I miss them already...

Comment by milomom 946/HM A-School on September 5, 2011 at 12:50pm: Lala - Was thinking of you and your daughter since the rash posting. So glad the wedding turned out beautifully! Sorry to hear they were in an accident. God bless them.
