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."

Hello Friends,

We are staying at the Navy Lodge and have RSVP'd for the Meet & Greet. 

We definitely will not be decorating our doors. I'm sure my son wouldn't want us to do that.

See you all in a few weeks!
