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."

Did you all see that "Sailor of the Year" is from Indiana!  From Rochester, IN

Comment by Brbr3 on February 6, 2012 at 2:10pm

Becky, Congrats! to You and Your daughter. Beautiful baby!

Hot or not it was a great party last year. It was worth the couple hours driving time to get there.

Tracie, We live about 2 hours south of you.
