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."

Ok so I am dreaming again ~
I didnt know you would be there in VA about that time, MY time is so open as to when I go as long as Colton is still there, maybe I will go and welcome Matt home too :) better get a couple of banners
Did you guys get your welcome home banners from that free site yet ?
Comment by Melissa (Tucson) on October 2, 2008 at 4:10pm
Matt should be returning from the Persian Gulf in May 2009 in Norfolk. You know I can't miss that! But I love Seattle, have lots of family there and now have new friends there so I will try my hardest to get there. Would you talk with the Navy and let them know they need to work this conflict out for me and Molly? Now? lol
Comment by Molly Molly Fo Folly on October 2, 2008 at 2:47pm
Will this be a homecoming for Shawn only or his ship also ? I would love to go to that also, with a banner that says *Navy Moms welcome our sailors home* or something like that. What great fun that would be ! Count me in let me know dates ASAP as I am also trying to get to Virginia about that time too.
BUT you know I would NEVER miss you coming to the GREAT NW :)
Come on Joyce lets crash with Patty !! LOL LOL LOL
Comment by Joyce Tucson Mom on October 2, 2008 at 2:03pm
