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 amanda on May 28, 2010 at 10:33pm: from what i believe, they can travel a 400 mile radius although if they go over 75 miles they have to fill out a form and get permission.

Comment by Krystal(Trevor'swife) on May 28, 2010 at 10:25pm: I was reading the discussion about the phases and I had a question. It says for phase 2 and 3 they can go 350 or 400 miles (I read both) during liberty. So does this mean that on a weekend they can travel this far?? I was just wondering if we would be able to make weekend trips to see family every now and then.

Comment by Krystal(Trevor'swife) on May 28, 2010 at 9:54pm: JoesBabycakes-My husband's PIR is on a Friday, he will fly to SC Wed., and the following Wed. he will be coming home to get me and the baby. So I will have to wait 1 1/2 weeks like you! I imagine it will be a very lonnngggg week and a half lol But I will try to keep myself busy with wrapping up the packing.

Comment by Emily-aaronsgirl11 on May 28, 2010 at 7:52pm: Isn't it crazy how some are flown to SC straight after graduation while others have to wait for what seems like forever! Oh, the Navy :)

Comment by momof5 (Ship 04 Div 192) on May 28, 2010 at 7:50pm: Hi all, newby here too..... my son Rob is on hold still in Great Lakes for another week to ten days, then he'll be down at school.

Comment by Kathy on May 28, 2010 at 6:53pm: Hi everyone! I'm new on here! I'm pretty active on the facebook navy sites, but have had a few recommendations for this site, so I decided to join!

Comment by Katie [Wife of Steven, ET] on May 28, 2010 at 12:47am: Thanks Casey! Regarding the Commissary, it SAYS you're allowed to bring a guest in, but the same thing happened to me - I forgot my ID and couldn't go in. (Steven was with me, with his ID).

Comment by Katie [Wife of Steven, ET] on May 27, 2010 at 11:44pm: Hey ladies! Does anyone know the hours and days the auto hobby shop is open! Thanks muchly :)

Comment by Traci (Perry's wife Nuke EM) on May 27, 2010 at 11:34pm: Thanks! We don't have a whole lot of stuff at the moment so the moving part should be very easy. But I did want to see what everyone was planning for the 4th?

Comment by Traci (Perry's wife Nuke EM) on May 27, 2010 at 11:20pm: Hi Cynthia! We need to get all the other Nuke Moms from our PIR group over here! These girls know their stuff.
