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 Stephen's Girl(ship12div121) on April 10, 2012 at 11:11pm: Shed ur- I'm in the same boats:) im going to be a nervous wreck until I hear his voice saying he made it. And quite honestly I'm going to be a big ball of nerves until I can see him. I really hope I can meet some of you at PIR, unfortunately do my flights I can't make it to the meet and greets:( but I'll be wearing a white and purple flower dress with RWB ribbons in my hair so if you see me feel free to say hi:)

Also to everyone congrats on your new sailors! So happy for you all:) and proud of all of them too!

Comment by missmygirl(ship12/Div121) on April 10, 2012 at 10:52pm: Kahli's mom, u r a wealth of info, I appreciate u posting this and hope that is my daughters schedule. We have a benefit in Ohio after this for her grandfather that passed last month. We then return to Michigan on Sunday....lots of road time but the two missions are well worth it!
Congrats to all of your sailors, incredible achievement for them! Still waiting for my call and pray it comes tomorrow.
Teacher mom, I agree, never enough time with our loved one's.
Did I mention how excited I am to meet you all? Safe travels and God Bless!

Comment by Teach on April 10, 2012 at 9:35pm: Oh Kahli's Mom...so bummed. 6:00 am...why couldn't it have been later so we'd have more time together. Now I can't wait for school to get out so we can go to San Antonio to see him.

Comment by Kahli's Mom on April 10, 2012 at 9:31pm: Got an unexpected phone call! So good to hear her voice. She was just having some free time, having pizza and eating chocolate:) She said she just knows it's going to make her sick, but it was worth it. She also let me know thaat she will be flying to San Antonio Saturday morning at 6:00am. They will have to go to the airport at 1:00am, so guess where I'll be? That's right, at the airport with my sweet girl soaking in every last moment I can with her. She is so excited! I even got her graduation date of August 6th. That means she will be home for her 21st birthday! YAY!!! Well, I better get back to packing, I'm leaving tomorrow am at 6 for the airport. Happy travels everyone! See you all there:)

Comment by CTsailor (03/118 PIR 4/13/12) on April 10, 2012 at 9:04pm: Oh, and those heading to San Antonio are leaving bright and early on Saturday :(
