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."

Gosh, here I am again apologizing for my late response to you.  Time has a terrible habit of getting away from me these days!  I don't quite have the hang of attaching pix via N4M.  If you'd like to send me your email address, I'll get those A School graduation pictures off to you right away.  Hope your trip out to Corry Sta. was a good one.  Isn't it amazing to actually see it with your own eyes?!

Hi Rorys mom!  So sorry for the delay in getting back to you.  I've been away and am just now getting caught up on my bills, emails, correspondence, you know how it goes.  I haven't forgotten about sending you my pix of the graduation.  I promise I'll get to it either today or tomorrow.  I sure hope your son is in one of them!  We didn't take a lot, but we did manage to get a few group pictures at the end of the ceremony.  Hold on, I'll send them to you soon!

Hi Rorysmom, thank you for friending me.  I am very excited about my son being a CTT and was wondering how difficult is CTT school?

Hi! Thanks for message...but, when I clicked on the message I lost it. Hope you had a great weekend. I can only imagine how emotional it must've been for you. If you don't mind I'd like to call you but I lost your # w/ the message. So if you can give it to me again that would be great. Mine is 310.387.0307. Hope you are recovering from the weekend and the aftermath isn't too much of a let down after the big build up. I just printed out my parking pass and can't wait to see my son on 8/6!
