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 ocMom (Ship 03 Div 118) on March 19, 2012 at 7:57pm: I want some BG panites !!!!! I need them today too. Sure missing my SR today. Why can't April 13 get here sooner?

Comment by momof4 on March 19, 2012 at 7:49pm: Proudmom - Where did you get the coins? message me please.

Comment by spring932 on March 19, 2012 at 7:44pm: Sending possitive vibes to Div118....... I know they can do it!!!!

Comment by Teach on March 19, 2012 at 7:42pm: Just ordered my PIR gift from nwtmint.com. I saw several post about challenge coins, but just didn't know if my SR would want one. However, I decided to go look at the website.

I found the perfect gift for him. He has always collected knives. They have a lockback pocket knife that he will be able to carry while in uniform. I read that the blade has to be less than 3 inches and all of theirs are. It looks great in the picture so I can't wait to get it and see what it actually looks like.

While there, I also ordered a Sailor's Creed Challenge Coin. I couldn't find one from Boot Camp or GL, so thought this was the most appropriate. They are so reasonably priced that I couldn't pass up getting both items.

Now if he still wants a watch, we can pick that out as a late birthday gift, but at least I have something to surprise him with. Made my day!!!

Comment by momof4 on March 19, 2012 at 7:40pm: @Bob's mom - Great point of view. Hope that it's a piece of cake for them. And you, too!!

Comment by momof4 on March 19, 2012 at 7:37pm: LMAO!! - Oops. Will that be deleted!! I want a pair!

Comment by proudmom on March 19, 2012 at 7:34pm: OMG!!! FTLW you are to funny...LOL!!!!

Comment by FireTeamLeaderWife aka FTLW on March 19, 2012 at 7:31pm: YAY BG Panties!

Comment by Bob's mom on March 19, 2012 at 7:18pm: I was cutting out a new suit this weekend and thinking how much being in BC is like making a suit. The RDCs take a bunch of broken pieces and make something nice out of it. I hope the RDCs are doing a better job with their pattern pieces than I am. I bet they're not cussing half as much as I am, either!
