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 Paula (was Capricorna) on June 5, 2011 at 9:28am: Did y'all (yeah, I'm in FL) order a Division t-shirt yet? Each Division makes up their own unique flag and there is a company authorized to make t-shirts with that flag on the back. The front just says U.S. Navy. I ordered one last week. Here are the details:

Poseidon Sportswear is run by a woman who has access to RTC and each division flag. If you'd like to order a sweatshirt/tshirt sometime in the next couple months, below is the link. She says she needs about a month if you'd like to wear it to PIR. She will keep the Division flag for a year in case you want to order it later on.

Comment by ConnieC on June 5, 2011 at 7:33am: Craig, I posted that one my FB when my SR left for BC, so funny

Comment by FireTeamLeaderWife aka FTLW on June 5, 2011 at 4:39am: BWAA, HA, HAAAAA! Love it!

Man the Torpedos! Not by THAT SR!!

I caught this on youtube about a month ago and showed it to my teenagers who have NEVER seen Jerry Lewis! They loved it!

I think I have the movie for this on Netflix "watch instantly".

No one should go through life without watching Jerry Lewis, I Love Lucy, Danny Kaye, Carol Burnett or Bill Cosby. I am probably leaving out quite a few and REALLY dating myself.

Oh, and Red Skelton!

Comment by Craig on June 5, 2011 at 3:17am: OMG!!!!

Comment by diannep on June 4, 2011 at 9:29pm: Craig: Never knew that our wonderful Navy was so FAT and OUT OF SHAPE back in the "old days." Glad that they have changed that! :-)

Comment by ConnieC on June 4, 2011 at 4:23pm: I entered the Navy in 1983. @ our A school graduation there were seasoned Sailors smoking pot in the garage, it was interesting. I remember running a PRT, that is what they were called back in day, I passed a PO1 who was smoking a cig.
