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 oneoftheballs(Ship7/Div363/) on October 25, 2010 at 10:30am: Does anyones recruit have 2 extra seats for PIR? We have 2 more teenage brothers that need seats. I was told the best way is to see if anyone has extra seats. My boys would be so excited to know they will get to see their brother in PIR for sure!
