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 jennaro18 on October 9, 2010 at 6:09pm: we live in clermont fl seems to be a good handfull of boys from florida

Comment by Mom from St Pete on October 9, 2010 at 3:03pm: We are from Florida too. My son has not mentioned about where any of the guys are from. He just said he is friends with a lot of them. He has to check log books every morning so I am sure he is getting to know them. They all sound like a great group of guys. Says the food is good and he has gained 8 pounds. His girl friend can't wait to see his new body.... My mom is getting very forgetful it saddens me to see her getting like that. She is 85. I am blessed to still have her with us. She is writtig her grandson letters. She is proud he joined the Navy just like his grandfather did.

Comment by diannep on October 9, 2010 at 2:18pm: Sharon: My precious dad has dementia also....for about 8 yrs now....so hard to see him "lost" even though his physical body is doing great. He is losing "connection" with all of us more and more, but God bless my wonderful Mom who keeps him very active doing the things he has always done socially . It is a horrible disease, but like you said....we learn to treasure the moments with them when they recall people and things!

Comment by Christina (EM Nuke gf 1111M ) on October 9, 2010 at 1:08pm: my bf is going to be a nuke too i believe he is thinking about doing the sub part too!

Comment by Sharon ~ K's Mom on October 9, 2010 at 1:04pm: Diego's bunkmate is from CT. There is another guy he chats with and he is from TX. He is a sub guy too and his dad is retired Nuke which is cool because he will be Nuke as well. He did use names, but won't here. I am not sure how they do the divisions that no one else is from our states?? Strange.
