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."

276--- My Husband is a SAILOR! :) We got 30min but Sr Chief was pretty pissed for some reason. He said they might call tomorrow again! FRIDAY FRIDAY FRIDAY NEEDS TO GET HERE ALREADY!

I think this is pretty normal, 274 has already been promised an ice cream party, and not the eating kind! They usually get a bit loopy after 30 hours of no sleep, do something stupid, and get a "reward" to show who is still in charge. Another day of IT never hurt anyone, lol. Friday is moving in!

My SAILOR called, also (so strange to not write SR) 276.  Thought he was over reacting about getting in trouble but see the same from others.  Hope it is not too bad for them.  Beyond happy to talk to him and have such good news.

FINALLY I got to hear from him. He is a Sailor now. Everyone's so ready to see him. I'm so proud of him!

Our Sailor called FINALLY!! We had a 30 minute phone call with her and she sounded great, tired of course, but doing good. She is looking forward to 8:00, lights out! Can't wait to see her on Friday!

Seachelle 53-She is in 941. Are you expecting a call today?
Permalink Reply by trapier on August 23, 2011 at 9:37pm
He's probably waiting until he knows she is out of class. She'll get!
Permalink Reply by NMsingsShip02Div941 on August 23, 2011 at 10:18pm

Probably too early to know as Battle Stations run 8 pm to 8 am.  I would think calls might come tomorrow morning once all maneuvers are completed.
