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 granyv on November 10, 2010 at 9:05pm: Oh his Mom and Dad and sister and brother and girl friend will be there.Found out too late we could have gotten in to see the ceremony without tickets.

Comment by Sharon ~ K's Mom on November 10, 2010 at 9:05pm: We have Sailors!!! Diego finally called our time about 7:22 p.m.!!! He is exhausted, but they all passed.
