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 d o on May 22, 2011 at 12:02am: That's a great idea!!! Maybe we should remember their mother's too, since only God knows how many tears she has shed for them.

Any one know of any good Memorial Day events here in Florida?

Comment by janieflorida on May 20, 2011 at 7:18am: Petty Officer in less than a year, that is quite an accomplishment. Congratulations. Let's all remember our military who have made the ultimate sacrifice on the upcoming Memorial Day. God Bless

Comment by MaryBeth on May 19, 2011 at 11:17pm: Just poking around and found this group. I have a son on the Enterprise and we live in Naples. They have been deployed since January but he is flying off the ship and coming home June 4th for SCAC school...can't wait to see him!

Hi to everyone here!

Comment by d o on May 13, 2011 at 2:42am: We're celebrating, since my sailor just got Petty Officer. He graduated from boot camp last fall, but he went in on DEP.

Comment by WifeyForLifey!! on May 11, 2011 at 11:51am: Janieflorida, hope you're right, I'm hunting...I need to find a good daycare/sitter also..any suggestions. We are leaning towards Yulee, or Amelia City

Comment by karen p on May 11, 2011 at 8:32am: do I hope your sailor gets all he wishes for. How long has he been in the Navy?

Comment by pattyb on May 11, 2011 at 8:17am: just found the Florida Navy moms!! My son is in basic right now-set to graduate June 3. I am from Alachua-by Gainesville

Comment by d o on May 10, 2011 at 9:41am: My sailor is hoping to be stationed in Mayport in late summer. I'll be interested to know what you find. He was also hoping to buy a house there...find a wife....and start his own family.
