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."

Thought it might be nice for everybody to say where they are staying for PIR as a means of knowing who will be in the same place, taking the shuttles, carpooling, etc. and maybe even getting together…Continue

Joan.... so what now?  Can you get another flight??   Things are going to work out!!  Prayers!!
Comment by diannep on January 26, 2011 at 1:02pm

Remember, Ladies...Pictures are allowed to be taken ONLY in the PIR Hall.  Absolutely none allowed to be taken on the base outside of the Hall.  SO don't forget!  I forgot when there, had my older son almost take one of a marching division coming by, until a nice lady gently reminded him.  OOOPS!  They will take your camera and make sure you delete it.
