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 TCarp0328 on September 26, 2010 at 6:18pm: Hey Iowa. I am happy that you are able to stay strong. You know we are all here supporting you. I hope everything turns out to be okay. Please do keep us posted and let us know what is going on. I hope he can stay and restart training.

Comment by iowanavygf (s7,Div355,PIR11/5) on September 26, 2010 at 5:43pm: Thanks Lynne! I got your message on the other page. It means alot to have your support, and everyone elses thru this horrible time. He is on ship 04.. which isn't the ship that is listed on here for being the sick and injured ship, so I'm confused on that part. I'm thinking its just like a holding part.. for those that will be seperated or chance of. Once I find out I will pass it on, so that heaven forbide anything happen to the remaining sailors.. you're aware. I hope you're all holding up well.. sailors should be writing today! Wed. will be here before we know it!
