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."

I just signed up for the Indiana Moms group.  I didn't start looking at N4M until my son was well in to PS.  We live in Greenwood, just south of Indianapolis. 

Comment by Austins mom on August 1, 2014 at 12:55pm

My son goes in Sept 9th. Any one else have a son going in same date? I didn't know where else to ask this cause I haven't been on here much. Just doing a lot reading until he does go in.

Safe here in Avon!  Heard that 3 houses were damaged in Plainfield... and a tornado was spotted in Speedway.  But, we didn't even go to the basement.

Comment by carols_kitchen on June 24, 2014 at 5:51pm

Any one near the storms today around Central Indiana?  Hope you're all safe, and that there was no significant damage.
