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 halee on July 16, 2013 at 1:10pm: Hi ! Well I know there are 2 Denny's restaurants off Hwy. 80. (1 in Newcastle & 1 off Hwy. 80 & Foresthill Exit, in Auburn)

Also, there is a Sizzler near the Cal Fire station along Hwy. 80 too.

Comment by Paymaster on July 16, 2013 at 12:45pm: halee and lisevie.......Can one of you two or both of you put your heads together, pick and date and local? That's all it takes to put one together. Once you have those two things I will make an event on the calendar her and post it.

If you could pick a place that will let us sit and chat for a while, that would be a perference for us. Let me know, don't be afraid to ask questions.

Comment by halee on July 16, 2013 at 12:30pm: Yes, I too would be interested in an Auburn meet. Thanks

Comment by ljsevie on July 16, 2013 at 4:49am: Is there a date yet for the next get together? In Auburn or ?

Comment by Vickyrun on July 12, 2013 at 11:50am: I had a nice afternoon in Sac yesterday. And I didn't get lost. Yay me!

We went to see my grandson Freddie and I read him some books. He is really smart. Then took the teenager to midtown, the Sunrise mall, Coldstone and a beauty shop called Ulta. I bought her some hair-cutting scissors.

Comment by Paymaster on July 9, 2013 at 8:42am: ljsevie....Yes, we just had one 2 weeks ago. I believe the next one will be in the Auburn area.

Comment by ljsevie on July 9, 2013 at 4:19am: Is there a N4M get together planned in Sacramento anytime soon?
