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."

My daughter is on the USS Essex and at the time of the quake they were in Malaysia. They have been re-routed to return to Japan to help along with 5 other ships. Hope this helps.

Yes the ship was in Malaysia as my son Hans posted on facebook early this morning from there. At the time he posted he was at a hotel relaxing but of course we all know that didn't last for long. They are headed back to Japan with humanitarian supplies.

It will take time for aerial evaluations to be done so that hot spots will be determined for all relief efforts. Save your strength. It will take time. Lite a blue candle for all of our 7th fleet.

Worry Ends When Faith in God Begins! Relax Ladies and trust that God is in control.
Ask God for Strength to give their entire Shipmates a strength beyond anything they have ever experienced.
We like to think that worry works for us.It reminds us what needs to get done or it motivates us to get to the next step.The truth of the matter is: worry works on us; it doesn't work for us. It will steal life & create relational difficulties.Until we get something that works better than worry,we are going to keep worrying.You cant say no to one thing until you have something better to say YES to. Say YES to God
