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 Kim (Ethan's Mom) on March 12, 2013 at 7:25am: Dawn, I had read that it was a friend that shot him but I didn't know it was his roommate! It's just senseless!

Comment by Dawn L. on March 11, 2013 at 9:48pm: Went to see the family of their son that passed away. Found out that he was shot by his roommate. Their deployment was pushed back until today. He was killed on Saturday evening. If they would have deployed on Friday like they were supposed to it would never have happened.The roommate is also in the Navy & is in custody. NCIS is doing an investigation. Don't know when they will bring his body home to have the funeral. Don't have any clue of what happened to have caused this. So sad for such a young & full of life young man's life to end so tragically. May Kris rest in peace.

Comment by Kim (Ethan's Mom) on March 10, 2013 at 8:02pm: Dawn, that is so sad. I hadn't heard anything on it but Addie was here this weekend so I didn't get much done except playing. I'll pray for his family and friends.

Comment by Dawn L. on March 10, 2013 at 3:50pm: We just found out that a sailor from our town died in an accident on the USS Carter Hall. They just left for deployment on Friday. I am truly sorry for their family. I can not imagine losing a child. My thoughts & prayers are with them. May he rest in peace.

Comment by carebear77630@yahoo.com on March 4, 2013 at 6:35pm: We are excited and waiting on our Abraham Lincoln world tour book to come in! suppose to be this month:) Anyone gotten yours yet?
