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 Pat on April 20, 2011 at 9:12pm: Mona...Fair Winds and Following Seas...I believe that is the correct statement...and Thank You for your kind blessings.

Comment by luvinmatt on April 20, 2011 at 6:20pm: Joanie, they have them on base and off. The one on base might be full though. He would just have to go to the PO and ask.

Comment by Joanie Tyler's Mom(133 Bees) on April 20, 2011 at 10:58am: Can anyone tell me if the P O Boxes the sailors can rent are on Naval Base Guam...or are they out in the city?

Comment by luvinmatt on April 17, 2011 at 7:53am: It does not have to be sent to a specific location. He can pick ut up at any western union in the world. When you fill out the info you will put his name and pertinent info. He will have to have an ID but I am sure he already had a new mil id made or will get one on Monday. I think you can also give them a passcode so they can pick up the money. I have only used western union one many years ago. If there is one on the base it will be in the customer service area @ the nex. That is down near the uniform shop in the NEX.

Comment by Joanie Tyler's Mom(133 Bees) on April 17, 2011 at 6:08am: Thanks Patricia...I'll do that...How will I know that I'm sending it to the location inside the NEX on his base?

Comment by Joanie Tyler's Mom(133 Bees) on April 16, 2011 at 10:40pm: Gerry: He is ok...just bruised up a little...He said they threw him down on the street.....

LuvinMatt; The 133 Ombudsman said they thought there was a street address I could send package from Fed EX to get things to him quicker....They'll let me know on Monday.

Comment by luvinmatt on April 16, 2011 at 9:08pm: hmmm idk that is a tough situation. Good Luck!

Comment by Joanie Tyler's Mom(133 Bees) on April 16, 2011 at 8:59pm: All of the people who he knows are on base with him....They are just deployed there for a few months....I don't know any other way to send mail other than an FPO address....USAA said they could only mail the replacement card to his address on record, wihich is our house...guess I'll keep looking....He'll have to check and see if there is a Western Union on the Naval Base.

Comment by luvinmatt on April 16, 2011 at 8:46pm: It is to the left right after you come out of base. I am sure he has driven by it 100 times. If he banks with USAA I would give them a call and see what they can do I am sure they have some kind of plan for stuff like this. Western Union is not through the banks. It looks like there is one over on the AFB. I have never used them so I dont know much about it. I would not send cash or cards to the FPO address maybe he has someone he can trust that lives off base and he can have it sent there?

Comment by Joanie Tyler's Mom(133 Bees) on April 16, 2011 at 8:19pm: Luvinmatt: He didn't know where navy fed was located...so it's right outside of base? He banks with USAA...he has one check he can cash, just didn't know where bank was located....The only address I have is FPO...don't have a street address....Would the Western Union go to the Navy Fed right outside base? Thanks for all the info.
