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 SheilaD on October 21, 2012 at 12:29pm: Congratulations to all our sailors and their families! One year ago today we were all thrilled as we watched our recruits become Sailors in the greatest Navy in the world! I hope that all are doing well!

Comment by SheilaD on August 24, 2012 at 12:21pm: Hey, Cheryl56 - It is amazing! I was looking at pictures of my son's Swearing In Ceremony at MEPS in Brooklyn! Lots has happened since then! My son is across the country and doing well, which is great. His ship is still undergoing renovations, so they won't be deployed until next year. Hope you are well!

Comment by Cheryl56(Ship11 DIV352) on August 24, 2012 at 2:00am: Hi Ladies,just thought I would drop in and say...can you believe some of our sailors are celebrating their one year anniversary on being in the USN!!! I know I can't.This time last year I was psyching myself up to get through 8 weeks of her being at BC, and now here she is 1 yr later half way round the world on her 1st deployment,a lot longer than 8 weeks:P Hope you are all doing good and your sailors too :)
