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 I'm Laurie the Sailor's Mom! on December 28, 2009 at 6:04pm: Hello all, I haven't posted in a long time, but have been keeping up with your posts.
I just wanted you to know that I had such success with Cindy's original questionnaire that I have sent two more of my own making. My son has not written an actual letter (no surprise there!), but said he likes the questionnaires because he doesn't have to come up with topics to write about. At this point I'm happy for any contact I get.
