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 IndianaMom on October 29, 2010 at 3:30pm: Mari - we spoke for about 15 min and then he was going to try to get ahold of his sister & gf. I asked how long they got to talk and he said "until they yell at me to get off" But knowing my son, he will get off as soon as he can so others can call.

Comment by firemansmom(S7/DIV357) on October 29, 2010 at 3:29pm: OMG I'm a nervous wreck!! If I get one more automated political call with a 877 area call I might have to call Obama himself and complain! I just hung up on "Sarah Palen"!! LOL

Comment by sandi (shp07/div357/PIR11/5) on October 29, 2010 at 3:26pm: Im jealous no call yet only paytonshana to see if I got call

Comment by Lynne on October 29, 2010 at 3:18pm: I have good news and frustating news depending on how you look at it. I was just messaging with our friend Dianne who helps in here all the time. She said she spoke to her son for an hour after Battlestations. So that got me to thinking. An hour for each person in each division with the number of phones the have is going to take awhile....so we bette settle out butts in a chair and recognize we are going to wait. I want my time with my sailor and I want everyone else whose loved has become a sailor to have that time too...so if it takes a couple of hours till I hear that is okay...so I am just warning you guys we might be in for a wait...lol

Comment by navymom x 2 on October 29, 2010 at 3:17pm: IndianaMom how long did they let him talk?

Comment by IndianaMom on October 29, 2010 at 3:16pm: Thanks Mari - he sounded good - tired but good. Your call should be coming any minute...I cant wait to see him next week!
