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 slapout52 on September 8, 2011 at 6:25pm: Would y'all come if they had the ceremony at Peach Park? LOL I will tell them to be sure to be in uniform . . . and another thing. .. .If they get married in the wintertime, do they BOTH wear their dress blues? LOL I love being a Navy mom sometimes.

Comment by slapout52 on September 7, 2011 at 9:08am: LOL Thanks y'all but I have NO IDEA!!! I got a text message from my son on Monday telling me he would be at sea for a week & he said BTW I'm getting married in Dec. or Jan. BTW??? So they don't know; they just want to get married when her deployment is over. Poor things, they may be graduates of A school but they're still clueless. But yes, I am very pleased.

Comment by sleepgirl on September 6, 2011 at 9:59pm: Congrats slapout!!! Will the wedding be here??

Comment by slapout52 on September 6, 2011 at 9:54am: My Sailors want to get married in Dec. when she gets back to Norfolk. OK . . . .

Comment by sleepgirl on August 25, 2011 at 5:57pm: slapout - I have continued to pray for your sailors. I will pray your son will stay safe in his voyage and pray for our little lady sailor as well and on their seperation while at sea! Thanks for being here for me!

Comment by slapout52 on August 25, 2011 at 10:22am: Hey Sleep I got 2 different sets of dates when my Sailor was at GL. Neither date was correct, and I heard the outcome after the fact via Fb from his best friend! I was so mad because I never got to light my blue candles! My Sailor joins the Fleet today & the young lady has 5 more leave days before she has to report. But the N Atlantic fleet in Norfolk is out to sea due to Irene.

Comment by sleepgirl on August 24, 2011 at 7:51pm: Ok I am going crazy!! Was told BS was today and that we should get a call, then I heard it changed. I haven't and I am crazy nervous!!
