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."

Congrats on getting the clock on! Yours looks much better than mine without that huge box full of nothing that was connected to my clock.

Me again...sorry. But I have to say, it was very frustrating for me to try and get the clock on. Not too computer savy with things like that. Only one member said anything about the clock being on there (the one who requested I do it in my group)...I'm not sure the others have noticed! So if it proves too difficult, don't worry about it. Maybe someone else can post it in the "posts" part and everyone can just go back to it! But hopefully, you can get it on there. I don't know why things have to be so difficult for us...maybe for me, it is because I'm getting OLD! :-)

Hey! Ok, Amber helped me to do the countdown clock. I used the instructions below on your page that she gave me too. The only thing I need to add is;;;; when you go back to the PIR page, make sure to right click on the LARGE box not the small one. You can do that. I had writing in my large box so I couldn't do it, so now I have the clock on there, but also a HUGE box of instructions that I can't make go away without getting rid of the clock. Make sure to click "save" at the bottom, and then the clock should come up.

nnichols...I'm not sure how to add a clock. Have you seen one somewhere?

Good Morning,
These are the instructions for the countdown clocks.
• Go to: Freeflashtoys.com
• Scroll down and click “create your own” under countdown clocks
• Another page pops up
• Type in - Name of event “PIR” ; Date “8/20/2010” ; Time “9:00 am”
• There are lots of different backgrounds, just chose one you like
• Then click “get the code” at the bottom of the page
• Another page pops up
• Click under the purple box (where all the wording is at), once you click it will say “copied”
• Go back to N4M, where you control and edit our PIR group.
• Right click in the “information area” (where you put “just found out my son’s PIR date is 8/20/10. Let me know if this is your son’s/daughter’s too.) Once you right click, click “paste” from the pop –up box.
It should be there. That’s it! Let me know if that worked or if you have any questions.
Amber
