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."

My son is in the 5th company class of 14. Welcome!

Comment by JackieM on July 13, 2011 at 12:47am: Is this group still active? My son is a Plebe, with the class of 2015. He's in India Co, 18th platoon. I would like to know if there are any other Co. 18 moms out there.

Comment by Paymaster on October 21, 2010 at 8:49am: Susie....What's wrong with your plebe?

Comment by Paymaster on September 19, 2010 at 4:47pm: Susie-Mom....Welcome to the ride. It doesn't matter how long ago we had plebes, we pretty much all go through the same thing.

Good luck to you. Please don'e be afraid to ask questions.

Comment by Sherry James on September 5, 2010 at 12:43am: Charlotte, my daughter graduated NAPS in '04 and USNA in '08. You're welcome to visit my page for a look at her story. NAPS is a wonderful year spent preparing for USNA just as USNA2011Mom has said below.

Comment by Paymaster on July 25, 2010 at 11:12am: Yes, the Trident is on line.

Comment by Paymaster on July 23, 2010 at 3:26pm: There is a Macaroni Grill by the mall.

Comment by Paymaster on July 23, 2010 at 9:03am: Marian.....Start looking in the Trident in the classified section. People that rent often place ads there. Also if you son has a sponsor family check with them, they often know who rents in their neighborhood.
