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 glassdog on August 21, 2011 at 7:41pm: Blessings on CTR1(EXW) Michael Joseph Strange and his family.

Comment by CTmomof3 on August 21, 2011 at 3:51pm: I read about this a few days ago. Very sad in deed. That's 2 CT's that have been lost in a month. The other was the sailor on the USS Boxer that went overboard. He was stationed in GA with my son.

Comment by NavyMom4J on August 21, 2011 at 12:55pm: ah - thanks for the correction- my fingers just don't like to hit the right keys ...

Comment by Craig on August 21, 2011 at 12:25pm: NavyMom - I know that was a typo. You met to say CT, and you added an extra CT since we are so use to saying that. Michael was a CTR....

Comment by NavyMom4J on August 21, 2011 at 11:51am: I am so sad for our CTT family- and the loss of one of our own. As well as all the families of the heroes lost - Keeping them all in my prayers

Comment by NavyMom4J on August 21, 2011 at 11:48am: Craig- thanks for posting pictures of NIOC Denver- I love the prairie dog one! LOL!!! Sent to my sailor - he really hopes to get Denver!

And also thanks for your sense of humor- some of the things you send keep me laughing for hours !!! EVERYONE needs humor in their lives otherwise it is too stressful! Keep sending them! LOL

Comment by Craig on August 21, 2011 at 11:34am: Now that it has became public, I want to say that we have lost one of our own...CTR1(EXW) Michael Joseph Strange.... Thank you for serving our great country, Michael, may you Rest-In-Peace shipmate....You will not be forgotten....

Here is the official release:

Two naval officers react outside for services for U.S. Navy Petty Officer 1st Class Michael Joseph Strange, a cryptology technician, at the Cathedral Basilica of Saints Peter, and Paul Thursday, Aug 18, 2011, in Philadelphia. Strange was assigned to the Navy SEAL team whose Chinook helicopter was shot down Aug 6 by a rocket-propelled grenade in what has become the deadliest single loss for U.S. forces in the decade-long war in Afghanistan.
