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 Jan (Ship 04 Div 802) on January 5, 2011 at 10:37pm: Got my phone call about 3 minutes after I got out of work and accidentally hung up on him before I got to talk to him! I was devastated, but he called back! He said "I made it! I'm a Sailor!" He was soo tired. Been up since 6:00am yesterday. He said that they didn't make Hall of Fame, because they tied with another Div so that put each of them second, so no one got Hall of Fame this time. I told him that they all did good! Can't wait till tomorrow and this weekend. You all can talk to Lydia tomorrow night if she is at home during the MnG. If not whoever is still around the Ramada later, can talk to her. She is soo excited to hear from everyone!

Comment by kimberli61 on January 5, 2011 at 8:54pm: Okay!!! We got our call from our recruit! I can't believe how fast and how slow the time has gone. He sounded tired but really upbeat about this weekend and how close we got today (at the bottom of Illinois).
Tomorrow should be about 6 or 7 hours to drive but I'll be on cloud nine so it won't bother me! I am sooooo proud of our guys and girls! See you tomorrow nite at the Meet and Greet, weather permitting!
