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 AF Airman on March 8, 2010 at 12:14pm: Its so weird cause i go to 2 different colleges. And im on spring break from one this week but no spring break from the other =(

Comment by sschick02_new navy wife on March 4, 2010 at 11:22am: I got three letters yesterday! Mike said that they get 30 minutes a day to write now that they are more than half way through - so he said to expect my mailbox to be overflowing :-)
I always feel so much better after reading his letters - they give me just enough to hold me over - and then after I a few days I am anxiously awaiting the Wednesday mail again. Hopefully now I won't have to wait so long for my fixes.
