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 carols_kitchen on October 5, 2011 at 5:02pm: Can you believe I got caught up in a huge book series this summer? So, the only movies I've seen of late are repeats of "Oklahoma" and "Bye, Bye Birdie." Read almost 9,000 pages, btw.

Comment by carol on October 3, 2011 at 8:55pm: Jn/Jf Mom, I also saw the movie before I read the book. My sister was visiting, and we wanted to go together. I bought the book, and am reading it now. I was really caught up in the movie, didn't even notice how long it went.

What is 50/50 about?

Comment by Kris, Stevens mom on October 3, 2011 at 4:48pm: Saw 50/50 this weekend, very good movie!!

Comment by J/J Mom on October 3, 2011 at 3:21pm: Saw The Help w/ my NROTC dd & some other moms & MIDN over the weekend.

I didn't read the book, but as far as the movie goes...

i laughed, i cried, i cheered ... i'm gonna go get the book from the library

Comment by Kris, Stevens mom on September 6, 2011 at 6:23pm: rented "Something Borrowed" good movie, had some belly laughs.

rented "Take You Home Tonight" (its set in 1988- can't believe I wore clothers like that) good movie, lots of belly laughs - excellent soundtrack, & ending had a cute music video - a spoof of 80's movies.
