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 navygirlfriend11 on December 6, 2014 at 11:12am: Does anyone know where my boyfriend will go after A school? Or does only he know that.

Comment by CatMom509 on December 6, 2014 at 5:29am: FTLW,

That's so nice to see that animals get gifts too in the video clip! I got my Sailor daughter's cat a new cat toy to send in her Christmas Goodie Box~~ :)

Comment by Raina on December 5, 2014 at 9:39pm: Thanks for the video, FTLW ~ funny and heartwarming!

Comment by z808404 on December 5, 2014 at 3:22pm: I booked my flight for next Wednesday afternoon so I have time to get acclimated. Booking the return flight today as my son thinks he departs from o'hare. Is the Facebook group up yet? I haven't been added yet. I look forward to meeting you moms at the sarge's meeting as well. Next week can't get here fast enough!

Comment by diannep on December 5, 2014 at 3:02pm: gbfuturewife: They should be able to go home for Christmas (some of the days during the break). They will be advised of this at A School and can route a chit then for the time off. It must be approved, of course, but for those who want to take Leave most likely they will be able to. They are allowed to "go into the hole" on their Leave days if they don't have enough days....they will accumulate back during A School.

Comment by gbfuturewife on December 5, 2014 at 2:17pm: Anyone heard if they get to come home for Christmas yet?

Comment by My2kidz on December 5, 2014 at 10:15am: Qrtkneesmom - Did you sign up for Rapid Rewards? I have flown SW a few times and never bothered but I did for this flight. Maybe that is what you need? You can do it for free and then make sure your RR# is attached to your booking. Hope it helps.

Julie - So glad it saved you some $!

Comment by Qrtkneesmom on December 5, 2014 at 9:58am: I am flying sw but no email yet?

Comment by CatMom509 on December 5, 2014 at 4:10am: Another Friday Down~~
