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."

Hi Terri, My son is also on ship 11, division 296. Everyone seems so helpful on this site. Wouldn't it be nice if all bloggers were as respectful to each other as these ladies are? Just wanted to say thank you because you are the reason I joined this wonderful group of Navy Moms. When my son first left, the minutes passed like days! I can hardly believe PIR is now so close. I still get a little emotional when I think about him. I hope I don't embarrass him at PIR. I just want to hug him and never let go.

Hello
Yes Zach is doing well, sounded tired but it was late when he called. I took 2.5 minutes of the call and my husband had only a minute. Its hard to get all the answers and let them talk. I miss him just being around.
How is your son doing? They seem to like it.
