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 Kelleypen on September 15, 2013 at 6:04pm: By inland I meant that non coastal or great lake states have far fewer sons and daughters join the Navy than coastal and great lake ones do.

We are up to four for lunch on the 28th, maybe 5. Okay, who else can come?

Comment by Vanmom2013 on September 8, 2013 at 1:04pm: I am very glad to see that there is some activity on this page. I would be more that glad to meet up with you guys. @ kelleypen on one of your previous comments you said "inland" what do you mean?

Comment by Kelleypen on September 6, 2013 at 11:22pm: Okay, And I'm coming and bringing my adult daughter--a Navy sister, so that's 4.

Comment by Kelleypen on September 6, 2013 at 1:57pm: How would you all feel about September 28th at 12 noon at Thanksgiving Point Harvest Restaurant? How many would be able to make it that day?
