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 LLovesmysailor on October 16, 2009 at 8:23pm: We missed the snow here in SW PA but the heat is definitely on.

Comment by June - Jon's Mom on October 2, 2009 at 2:22pm: Karen, terrific story. What a wonderful son you have.

Comment by LLovesmysailor on September 29, 2009 at 10:49am: Oh< I'm so sorry to hear that. I hope they find them.

Comment by LLovesmysailor on September 27, 2009 at 6:39pm: I had a great time at the Meet & Greet. Hope everyone got home safe and sound.

Comment by June - Jon's Mom on September 21, 2009 at 4:31pm: Karen, I speak with my son tonight and let you know in the morning.

Comment by June - Jon's Mom on September 21, 2009 at 4:11pm: Karen, my son is currently in Norfolk. I will ask him if he will do this. What are you looking for?

Comment by LLovesmysailor on September 21, 2009 at 4:00pm: Karen, I'll try and get in touch with my son, He's stationed in the Norfolk area. But he is a CTN and has a habit of disappearing on me. Send me a message on my page with exactly what you need and I'll do my best to get in touch with my son.

Comment by LLovesmysailor on September 20, 2009 at 7:11pm: When my husband was in the Navy we were stationed in Norfolk and lived in Virginia Beach. My oldest is now there and just bought a townhouse. I was in shock when I realized that the townhouse he bought is 2 blocks from the one we owned. He was born down there and lived in that townhouse until he was two.

Comment by LLovesmysailor on September 20, 2009 at 5:51pm: John's Mom, What will your son be doing at Dam Neck? One of my sons worked there for a while.
