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 Sherri (mom of Kirsten) on June 16, 2010 at 6:56pm: I am a DEPers mom.

Comment by Diane1954 on June 16, 2010 at 9:42am: August would be much better for me. Can you put out a list of the type of things they need? I can contact my buddies at my former employer & maybe get some donations that way too.

Comment by Sherri (mom of Kirsten) on June 15, 2010 at 11:56pm: Julie I'll check my calendar and see if those dates in August work and get back to you. But I think they should be fine, nothing major is coming to mind.

Comment by Diane1954 on June 15, 2010 at 9:47am: Sounds like a great way to spend a Saturday morning. Let me know a date & I'll see if I can. We have lots coming up in the next month. #2 son is coming home the end of this month & #1 son is getting married July 17 (provided they can get the chapel on base.) Even though I work at home, I still see the folks from the old job - maybe I can get some donations from them. They were great when Brent wanted some Christmas stuff for his shop while they were on deployment.

Comment by Sherri (mom of Kirsten) on June 15, 2010 at 12:07am: I will start collecting stuff now.

Comment by Sherri (mom of Kirsten) on June 14, 2010 at 11:49pm: That sounds like fun, I'd be game. What kind of things do we need to collect?

Comment by Marcy ~ Corpsman Mom on June 2, 2010 at 7:52pm: Proudmom thanks for that, yes I know them well and know who has a motorcycle, omg. I just called & got the info. THANKS for sharing that news, he's a wonderful guy and will be ok, thank God he was wearing a helmet.

Comment by Diane1954 on June 1, 2010 at 9:07am: Hope you all had a wonderful weekend. My oldest son & his fiance came for the weekend, but had to leave Sunday as he had duty yesterday. More news - my younger son is coming home from Wisconsin. He is dropping out of college & going into the Navy. He has qualified for nuke. He doesn't have an exact day, but will be going next week to select his job. I have to say that I am glad he is getting out of college. The school he went to (for all the wrong reasons according to him) has not worked out. He is excited about going into the Navy & I am very happy for him.
