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."

Hey Ship 3 Division 353/354 group :) How many are going to Sarge's M&G Thursday the 19th?  I know we will be there and since we have are in the '20's of our countdown I'm getting more than excited!!  When we hit the 'teens' this momma is going to be jumping like a crazy woman :)

Hi TX Trina...we are signed up for Sarge's M and G so we'll be looking forward to meeting you! I'm so very excited as well, have you had a call lately?  Do you know exactly what day/week this is considered?  Since they had a delay in processing week, I find it hard to keep track of what they should be doing in the websites that list the day by day activities...

Can't wait to meet ya'll!! Sorry I just saw this post - it is tough but I think today is 6-1 but the Holiday through me off.  It might be 5-5.

We are going as well. Very excited!

Can't wait to meet ya'll!!

Can't wait to meet ya'll!!!

Somewhere I read a week to week senario of what our SRs may be going through right now.  Does anyone know what I am talking about?  Or did I dream it :)  Not having heard from her in awhile is just making me wonder what she is doing... Thank you!

Hi...not sure if this is what you saw before, but I refer to this a lot.

Hope that helps. 

CNKAZ... That is exactly it!!  Thank you!! Having a hard time tonight, and this some how helps. :)

I agree...some days are worse than others. Cant wait to see how much  he's matured, and be able to hug him again!

It's getting very close! Almost the 'teens' :)

The letter I just got from my son indicated that he had ordered pictures and that there would be enough for all of us.   He said that it didn't cost anything.  I was assuming that there was no cost?  He must be talking about the pictures they have already taken in their whites.  The graduation pictures would be different correct?
