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 goobemom on October 6, 2010 at 4:36pm: Hang in there Katieliz...... my son is on the USS Pelelui and there have been a couple of times the ship didn't have communication. I know it is tough when you can't communicate. I just learned of Tiger Cruising. If i lived closer to San Diego and had more vacation time, I might consider. However I don't know if I could stand it. I was able to Board the ship for breakfast before it departed and I was set back. I realized then, the sacrafices everyone was making.

Comment by goobemom on October 6, 2010 at 11:21am: Hello Shirley, thanks for the welcome. It is nice to have other Navy moms. I also get frequent emails from my son. I have sensed a lot of frustration because of being sea bound without a port for so long. I feel so bad for all the sailors having to be confined for so long. Land is approaching soon.

Comment by goobemom on October 5, 2010 at 10:41am: Thanks Julie. I look forward to keeping in touch with you. Katieliz I am glad I am not the only newbee. Thanks for keeping me company.

Comment by goobemom on September 23, 2010 at 6:25pm: Hello Julie, thanks for the page information. I was hoping the news would be different. I am sure your son is just as tired of the long journey.

Comment by goobemom on September 22, 2010 at 3:48pm: Hello everyone that has loved ones on the USS Pelelui! My son is on this ship however he has really good friends on the USS Dubuque and Pearl Harbor. It has been interesting watching their progress. I am proud to be a Navy Mom and more so proud of the work they are all doing
