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."

Thank You aj! Yes, I made the ribbons we are wearing for PIR, because I wanted to use the Challenge Coins I got for my son for Grad gifts. So I put them on the ribbons we will be wearing. I put my ribbon on the candle for tonight. I would have ordered from Lala, except that I wanted to use the coins. I have to hand it to Lala... Making the ribbons takes alot of time, and the letters and numbers are quite expensive. She's really doing a labor of love selling her ribbons for such a low price. She's a sweetie, and does it for all of us, and our Sailors! I won't miss the call, that's for sure. Just hope he calls me and not his GF, OR that he gets to make 2 calls. :)

Asherzmom...Thank You Glo! SO are YOU!!! :)
