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 Lynne on October 13, 2010 at 11:25am: Glad you got a phone call Maggie...go to your individual page....click on the tab "my page" scroll down to the bottom and you will find comments and it is written there....

Comment by Lynne on October 13, 2010 at 11:24am: Okay...first Mean Lynne...you all don't know her very well...lol...deleted all the posts that had last names in them....I just did it to insure that it gets done because sometimes people post and then don't post again until the next day and that is too long to have last names up....lol...OPSEC rules and all...so if you are wondering where your post went...it was me

Sandi....I have asked around and no one I have talked to....even people with PIRs with as many divisions as us has had anyone turned away...now I am not saying it couldn't be a first .... but it is unlikely...
