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 TexasDocMom on January 29, 2010 at 5:31pm: yeah, the GOP was REALLY regretting letting the President stand up there and rebut every one of their sound bite issues...and nail them on being the party of "no"...people are tired of it. Anyone serving in the Congress needs to be an American first, with only his/her faith and family ahead of that, and leave their political party after that. My son serves as a patriot, why the hell can't those bozos? and do what is best for Americans!! good grief.

Comment by TexasDocMom on January 26, 2010 at 9:12pm: you can't make this stuff up...

Comment by TexasDocMom on January 26, 2010 at 1:29am: A Marine's view on Bible verses on guns. A well-spoken Marine's perspective on it.

Comment by TexasDocMom on January 21, 2010 at 3:03pm: Inga, I've been hoping for reconcilation all along! screw the 60 votes! bring on the public option. And if this new Sen wants to last longer than 2 years, he best please that mainly liberal district of his.

Comment by TexasDocMom on January 17, 2010 at 8:54pm: Hatian Coast Guard Base Clinic is one spot where they are taking them.

Comment by TexasDocMom on January 17, 2010 at 4:32pm: Well, they have to be taking them someplace, photo after photo of the injured being loaded up, possibly Gitmo?

Comment by TexasDocMom on January 17, 2010 at 2:15pm: For now...they seem to be calling up corpsmen for 90 day deployments....we'll see...

Comment by TexasDocMom on January 17, 2010 at 2:03pm: sounds like a lovely weekend! we had our homecooked soft tacos and now the Cowboys on the tube...nice to have this sailor within reach so often!

Comment by TexasDocMom on January 16, 2010 at 4:32pm: which daughter is the baker? Or are any of your grandchildren old enough to do it? I know not Ava, but maybe her sister or brother? My granddaughter has really taken to baking but the family complaint is she makes pretty cakes but the frosting isn't thick enough...smooth, very smooth!
