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."

tgcunny,

Do you think your son would be interested in coming over to our home on Saturday eves for food and board games?

We also get together on Sunday afternoons for a home cooked meal and of course dessert! 

We try to offer a place where the Sailors can get off the base and be in a home while away from their homes.

Let me know what you think. :)

Good Morning tgcunny,

Sorry I didn't see this earlier. Wow week 7 that is awesome!!! You are definitely on the count down. Are you guys going to PIR? It truly is an amazing experience.

Yes it's a bummer when there are some that just don't want to follow the rules and get everyone else in trouble. 

Prayers for his division to come together and for them to finish strong!!

Have a great Sonday and God Bless!!!

Welcome!! Please read my blog to give you an idea of what the first few weeks may look like.. Welcome to the Navy... Everything will be ok!  The First part is some things to do before your SR leaves IF you Can, It’s NOT ESSENTIAL! Up and to the Left is a link to all the Navy Lingo! It is titled Navy Speak and you can find it here. We are here to get you through the “Great Silence” of the next 4 weeks (ish) and the 10 weeks of BC (ish). You will come to learn that No News Is GOOD News and everything is Needs of the Navy. You life will be Hurry Up and Wait and it’s ok to make plans but they are subject to change until after they have happened so it’s best to embrace the Motto: Semper Gumby!! (Always Flexible!!)
