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 November 30, 2010 at 3:52pm: How about this for a sign: "Postman with letter from RTC gets a treat" you never know rewards may be the key...lol...then in the fine print you could add..."or else"

Comment by diannep on November 30, 2010 at 2:23pm: ...personally, I would be more afraid of the irrate Navy mom than any dogs! Angry dogs are no fun...but an anxious almost irate Navy Mom? Well, no one better mess with her! :-)

Comment by Cat(Mom of an AO) on November 30, 2010 at 1:55pm: Hey Ellen, who are you today?

Comment by Ellen B on November 30, 2010 at 1:52pm: Totally cool, ladies!!

Comment by Cat(Mom of an AO) on November 30, 2010 at 1:41pm: LOL! I have a sign place up the block from my house. Very tempting! I might just go there afterwork.

Comment by bradsfanclub on November 30, 2010 at 1:36pm: funny.. instead of "beware of dogs" sign you may need to invest in a "beware of navy mom waiting on letter" sign. lol Just to worn him and maybe put the fire under his butt... I think i would be more afraid of a navy mom then a dog!!!!
