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."

I am afraid that I found the MAN group yesterday and infiltrated it! LOL  I then posted the link on all of the PIR groups (maybe the moms will "encourage" their hubbies), BC moms and a couple of others. My nosy, buttinsky, hovering mother could not help it! Several of the veteran PIR moms "infiltrated" along with me (TEAM work! LOL). I promise not to stick my female nose on too much...as it is for you DADS! Much to my surprise and I have been promoted to Administrative status...has to be the most touching promotion I have had on here...I am both honored and humbled. Let the wetting down commence...

Concernedad - I'll send you any and all documents I have stored for managing a Group. I am sure you have seen B's "Survival Guide" I have a lot of step-by- step stuff too....How to get around on a group, etc...guess it's time to really sit down and make sure they are all Ship shape before sending to you!
