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 SubWife2011 on April 11, 2011 at 2:56am: awesome, I hope they do bc I missed the call on Wed. I can't wait to hear his voice again. How do you know their week 4 doesn't start until Friday? Were they in processing that long?

Comment by Ascoobus on April 11, 2011 at 12:52am: He said they would probably get a call during week 4 when I talked to him Wednesday, but their week 4 doesn't start until Friday.

Comment by Tanasia (ship07Div171) on April 11, 2011 at 12:09am: question --- when i got my letter my SR he wrote out his adress in the letter, because i guess he didnt think i would be able to understand it on the envelope. Anywho when he wrote it out but he didnt put his division number he only wrote ship 07 uss chicago. so when i sent my letters to him i didnt write the div number... is it going to matter or will my letter get delayed -- keep in mind he wrote his division number on the envelope just not in the letter where he wrote it more clearly.

Comment by Navy-Girlfriend32 on April 11, 2011 at 12:03am: You might get one this week mine was on a Wed :)
