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."

That is a really nice picture of Halee. I talked to the 4th grade teacher and the kids are making cards for her. So I will mail the out after the first of December. They are so wonderful the cards, the words and the picutues, some tell jokes, it is so cute, believe me that will brighten her day.

She looks good and great in her blues. It is good she is getting out of there. Now full ahead. LOL I am glad I met her, she is really a lovely girl.

I am glad she is doing well, I am sure she is very bored. I think about he often. How many more weeks does she have until he cast comes off? I am glad someone is trying to keep her busy. Are you coming up for Thanksgiving? I am hoping for my son to come home but so far no word, his leave is sitting on someones desk, he will not be able to get a plane ticket if they don't let him know soon, oh that Navy makes me mad sometimes. LOL

Hi! How are you? Wondering how your daughter is doing? Love to hear what is going on with her. Hope everything is fine with you, take care!

I hope you are feeling better, it is no fun to be sick. I wanted the girls to see your daughter how cute she is. I think more moms are going Sunday and then maybe the following SUnday so that will give her a few visits. Get better!

Hi, how are your feeling today? Better I hope. I posted two picture of Halee on the Chicago site I hope that was ok!
At 1:23pm on November 3, 2010, Debbie (Stephen's mom) said…
Her new roommate is old and snores. LOL It is a pretty good size room as you know but boy it was sooo hot in there.
At 1:21pm on November 3, 2010, Debbie (Stephen's mom) said…
Hi, yes your daughter told me all about the job she will be doing and where she wants to go. It was so much fun being with the girls yesterday, I enjoyed every moment. Halee told me that you were sick, that is a long train ride and breathing all that bad air. Halee told me she wanted to go home for Christmas, I do not know if the Navy will let her. I told her she can come with me. I have a daughter 21 and maybe my son will be coming home from Italy for Christmas, I have my fingers crossed. I don't know if the Navy will allow that either and I know you and Halee don't know me but I am not a crazy person. LOL I got in trouble for taking pictures, the nurse was not very nice, but don't worry I got some. LOL If she cannot go any where maybe my daughter and myself could take her to Gunee Mills for the day. I will no be home for Thanksgiving going to FL to see my parents or I would try to get both girls to come to my house.

Thanks I have the directions also. What was she going to do in the Navy? My son is an IT and will be in the Navy for two years November 18th, he is in Italy now, talk about being far away. It has been wonderful for him and I know he just loves it. Can't wait to meet your daughter.
At 9:47pm on November 1, 2010, Debbie (Stephen's mom) said…
Your poor daughter and being so far away from home. Don't worry about her, she is going to be fine. I am hoping to stop tomorrow on my way home from Gunee Mills, I am going with a friend but I don't think that will be a problem. We are a good group of moms and would love to visit your daughter and the other girl. I will give her a hug from you.
