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 priscilla; FC wife on December 23, 2010 at 3:27am: Woo! I'm home with my sailor. Him and my dad are talking military. Pretty sure my husband's getting all his talking out - I've never seen him talk so much.

Hope everyone is enjoying their sailors!

Comment by priscilla; FC wife on December 22, 2010 at 8:48pm: My husband missed his flight by a few minutes. Pray that there's availability for him to catch the next one. I feel so devastated; that if I were there, this wouldn't have happened ha.

Congrats to all of our sailors. The wait is finally over. :)
