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 KLP0824 on January 27, 2011 at 12:00am: hey ladies and dads just got home from shopping and getting last min things omg this time tomorrow we all will be in chicago HOOYAH

Comment by gvnavydad-ship011div057 on January 26, 2011 at 11:43pm: The city surrounding RTC 'North Chicago' is not the nicest. Dangerous? I don't know about that, didn't seem that bad to me. But I am not from small town USA, just looked lower income to me. We drove over to the area around Gurnee Mills to eat, lots of nice restauraunts there, we had a great meal at the Lone Star Steak House. Hauled left overs back to the hotel, our Navy Lodge room has a kitchen so it will make a great breakfast burrito in the am. The Navy Lodge is in the middle of Navy housing...looks about as safe as you are going to find anywhere. All is good!

So glad Hawkeye and Baby Girl finally got the call. Hooyah!

Comment by Hawkeye Mom on January 26, 2011 at 11:42pm: Goodnight everyone. Thank you for being there for us.
