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."

Also no calls except for the first I made it here call. I am not expecting any for some time, if at all! I was in the marines and we didn't even call once, not even to say we were there!

What does your son's last name start with? Maybe my son and yours are bunkies.
At 6:41pm on March 7, 2013, Tara-Sailor Mom said…

That is awesome! I'm so looking forward to just get SOMETHING from him. I think that's my biggest worry, his being home sick. I was doing OK today for the most part. A few 10 second cries, until I got to Stop and Shop after work....haha, I can only imagine what people were thinking!

At 7:52am on March 7, 2013, Tara-Sailor Mom said…

Good morning, I got the call at 12:05a! I was really expecting a 3am thing to happen. Thankfully I didn't hear the yelling in the background. I'm most grateful because Anthony sounded good. Leaving him at the airport was by far the most difficult thing. I was fine emotionally until I called my husband at work to see how the roads are in Rockland (we both work down there).

I'm only off on the weekend. Anytime after 10a is good for me on Saturdays. I go to weight watchers. Maybe we can meet at Perkins. Sundays I'm free from about 12-3. I'm in church most of the morning and I'm taking a class thru church in the evening (just until Easter).

I hope you have a good day. Let me know if Blanchette was able to help you out. If you want to call my number is 269-2127.

Hi. I'm doing OK right now but I think it's more from being tired. Coming home late last night and heading back up this morning. My son figured his PIR would be 5/3. did you get his mailing address with his box or do you have to wait for the letter. He (Anthony) went out of Middletown too. His original recruiter was Blanchette. He said if we don't get the address after a week to call him and he would look it up for us. (FYI)

Maybe we could meet once in a while for coffee, compare notes etc. I'm up in Meadow Hill behind the mall/stop and shop.

Hi Andrea. Thank you for messaging me! It's so nice to know that there is someone close by going thru the same thing. How are you holding up? My son just left today (boarding the plane now to Chicago)
