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 savannahgal-nukemom1110MT on November 10, 2010 at 10:51am: Almost wish I was driving--guess I'll just have to clean my house instead, to keep busy :(
370 ladies, anyone who hears from their SAILOR, please ask if all passed. I will try to have the presence of mind to do that. My husband plans to leave work early to do some shopping for him this p.m. We may be in some men's dept. when we get the call!

Comment by Diana PIR 11/12/10 on November 10, 2010 at 10:43am: That sounds about right on the timing.....What a long day this will be! See you tomorrow! :-)

Comment by Diana PIR 11/12/10 on November 10, 2010 at 10:31am: Drive safe Libby!! Both hands on the wheel and when you get "the call" use your headset! Better yet PULL OVER!!!!!

Comment by leslie (SHIP 11, DIV 370) on November 10, 2010 at 10:23am: Thanks Diana......it is going to be CRAZY until we all get that call. But I am trying to keep myself busy at work and that way I won't be looking at the clock all the time. But I will cry as soon as I hear his voice. But I keep telling myself that I will see him in 2 days.....YAY !!!

Comment by missheparin(ship11/div370) on November 10, 2010 at 10:15am: I keep thinking about them putting that sailor cap on. What a moment! I wish I could see that. Sooo proud!
