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 Navy Mom (J) on October 27, 2013 at 12:32am: Welcome JakzinAZ Mom! It is in the best interest of your son if you don't post dates or specific places. We all want to keep our kids safe. Glad you are here and you will find support! Best to make friends and private message with them to talk specifics!

Comment by JakzinAZ on October 27, 2013 at 12:14am: Hey AZ Moms! I'm new to this group and just wanted to say hi. My son is at A School in Great Lakes. I just joined this group so I missed the last luncheon but look forward to the next one. Until then.. :)
