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 littleone68 on April 7, 2012 at 6:59pm: i was so surprised to get a phone call this afternoon!!!!! it was so great to talk to him! was the first time since he left (his only other call went to the gf). i was surprised as i didn't expect to hear anything at this point until after BS as PIR is this friday :-) we talked for about a half hour then i told him to go ahead and call his gf before he ran out of time :-)

Comment by CheleMarie on April 7, 2012 at 6:59pm: Couldn't be happier I got two calls from my SR today and he sounded amazing. He just talked and talked and talked... He kept saying how hard he's been trying and not giving up on anything. He passed everything but knows he has so much to improve on. He's happy and proud of how far he's come. Me too. He's officially my hero. :-)

Comment by CheleMarie on April 7, 2012 at 6:42pm: @seabreeze-- Not 922... but they did pretty well!

Comment by proudmom on April 7, 2012 at 5:07pm: Yippie!!

Comment by Teach on April 7, 2012 at 4:31pm: SR said they got to check their orders and all HM going to San Antonio are going to be held at GL for about 10 days before they leave. I think there is a Transfer Hold Unit where they will stay. Have any other HM said this? I'm glad, if it's true because that means we can have him on Saturday also. Sadly, we have to come home on Sunday early.
