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 LindaB(Ant'sMom)10/15 on August 25, 2010 at 12:11pm: Good Morning everyone! Yes, I'm at work and on the website. I promised myself that I'd try not to at work, but what the heck. I have keep informed, right? One week gone and 7 weeks to go. I hope the time goes by quickly. It feels like an eternity that I've seen my son. How come when you want the time to go quickly it seems like we're standing still and when we don't want it to, the time flys by? I guess that's just the way it is. Still waiting for my letter. Hope it comes by the end of the week! Have an awesome day!
