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 D~W~G on November 10, 2010 at 10:27am: yes 1 week down they probably really welcome a more interesting week this week since last week was shots and paper work. I hope they are all holding up the the physical and mental conditioning, being this is their first taste. I am sure that in 2 more days they will be adjusting. Nice to meet you all, god bless and hang tough!
