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."

Anita, we must be sure to look for each other at the M& G to see if we recognize each other! wouldn't that be something! Are you going to dinner afterwards too?I am so looking forward to that night because I will be so excited I will not be able to sleep..hubby and I are staying at the Ramada, I just thought it would be easier with the M&G there.

Thank you Anita for your response. My heart breaks for my son because he always makes excuses for his dad. I always knew he was narcisistic and self-absorbed. The thing that bothers me is he has three sons from his current marriage and that is what matters to him. He has basically tossed his other three kids away. I at least know I can lay my head on my pillow every night and know that I love my children and put them first. My kids are so fortunate though to have a step-father who cares so much about my kids. He doesn't even consider them step-kids but his kids. All we can do is pray for the lost souls of those who don't step up. We love our kids and show them in every way.

Hi Anita! So happy to connect with someone from the area that has a Sailor in the same division. Yes, I am going to PIR with my husband, mother and uncle. We are leaving out of Tampa on Thursday 8:40AM American Airlines - We are staying at the Springhill Suites. Have you booked your trip yet?
My daugter is going for Master at Arms and will be going to San Antonio for A School. Where is your son going?
