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 momclf (ship03 div 018) on December 2, 2010 at 11:42pm: It was so awesome to meet all of you tonight at the meet and greet. Dodie..GREAT JOB!!!!

Comment by nvmomma on December 2, 2010 at 9:45pm: We are here! Very nice (and inexpensive) Hilton Garden Inn in Lake Forest; we are exhausted after a long day flying from CA. Sorry we won't see you at Ramada Inn tonight; hope to meet some of you tomorrow - we will be sitting in div. 10 section, I am wearing black sweater/pants over a red shirt, and my husband is the handsome dude in the long coat & using a cane. :)

Anyone know how far it is from the gate to the drill hall? We are deciding whether to park off base & walk in, but my hubby has issues & can't walk a long distance...

See you tomorrow! Sleep well...ya right! :)
