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 NJNavyMom on July 19, 2015 at 9:20am: I'm looking forward to meeting you DJsmom!

Comment by DJsmom on July 19, 2015 at 8:51am: I am already friends with Karenlee but I sent a request to nancyp and NJNavyMom once you are friends then you can go to your page and send messages to friends. Hope that helps!!

I also am excited about todays lunch with NJ Moms infact NJNavyMom you will have to introduce yourself to me.

Comment by DJsmom on July 19, 2015 at 8:42am: Good morning girls ... I think if we all add each other as friends then we can private message each other. I will add you all.

Comment by nancyp on July 18, 2015 at 10:57pm: Karenlee, I received your message and responded last night but may not have done it correctly, as apparently you didn't get it. I'm not that savvy about how this works. I'll try to figure it out later. My son is in the same unit as yours, not deployed yet, so I would like further info, but to correspond by email, as my son is very private. Thanks.

Comment by Karenlee on July 18, 2015 at 8:30am: NJNavyMom, haven't figured it out yet. I am not very computer savoy!

Comment by NJNavyMom on July 18, 2015 at 6:51am: My son is also at Little Creek. How do I do the private email?

Comment by Karenlee on July 17, 2015 at 10:21pm: nancyp I sent you a message from your page so if you get it I will send my address.

Comment by Karenlee on July 17, 2015 at 10:16pm: nancyp not sure how I do that

Comment by nancyp on July 17, 2015 at 10:07pm: Karenlee I think there is a private email feature? If you can activate that I will respond.

Comment by Karenlee on July 17, 2015 at 9:03pm: nancyp my son is at Little Creek with MU 12. What unit is your son in? Mine is currently deployed.
