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."

Comment by outi on April 17, 2015 at 11:39am: Praise be to the Lord, for He has heard my cry for mercy. The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in Him, and I am helped. Psalm 28:6-7

Even my daughter will be honorably discharged for medical reasons I do not want to leave this group because this is a blessing and a great group of people. If I can help other people with the same problems as my daughter im here . I like all the comments , sometimes I cry as I read all the comments !!!!! Thank you very much and keep in touch with you. God Bless you all!!!!

Comment by outi on April 15, 2015 at 11:37am: Echoing KathyMmom's prayers for these daughters in Jesus name, and for the moms too.....

Comment by KathyMmom on April 15, 2015 at 9:52am: BobbieSue and nolla1955 - first of all - praying for your daughters. Our family has been through similar and my son is now medically retired. As you can see, I haven't left the site, although not as frequent a visitor. You are still a Navy Mom and we always welcome prayers from momma hearts because these prayers are so powerful! If you just want to stop getting emails, look just below the area where you would type a comment and there is a little link that shows 'Stop Following'. If you want to leave the group altogether, look in the top right of the page for 'Leave Group'. That will work on any group you belong to.

Ladies, make sure your daughters understand what their disability ratings are (if they have them) and what they mean. Benefits may depend on them. Let the DAV help you or the Wounded Warriors program if your girls have any questions or need support with the paperwork. If they went through the Medical Board process they should have a disability rating for both DOD and VA. They generally make them low, so if your daughters need more help than their rating might provide, have them fight for it BEFORE they are discharged! Afterwards, it's much harder to get anything changed. Hugs love and prayers to both of you.

Comment by nolla1955 on April 14, 2015 at 4:25pm: Praying for your daughter BobbieSue, my daughter will be honorable discharge too from a school also for medical reasons!!!

Comment by BobbiSue on April 14, 2015 at 2:47pm: Trying to figure out how to leave this site. My DD is being discharged for Medical reasons. :( A prayer and help in how to leave since she is being discharged.

Comment by KathyMmom on April 14, 2015 at 1:07pm: Amen and echoing outi's words and prayers. Praying for full recovery very soon! Have they at least given her a diagnosis? Kudo's to Joey - his love for her is shining too! Wonderful.

Comment by outi on April 14, 2015 at 10:20am: Because You are my help , I sing in the shadow of Your wings. My soul clings to You ; Your right hand upholds me. Psalm 63:7-8 Continued prayer for your daughter and you and also for Joey...healing , strength and peace in Jesus name.

Comment by outi on April 11, 2015 at 10:39am: Will continue to pray.....the Lord knows exactly what is going on, never for a second forget He is in control -But from everlasting to everlasting the Lord's love is with those who fear Him, and His righteousness with their children's chilren. Psalm 103:17
