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 PAM (GM MOM) on December 2, 2010 at 1:43pm: Getting ready to leave for Great Lakes. We have about a 3 hour ride up. Our car decided to act up last night, I don't trust it, so we had to go get a rental car. Can't wait to see my son and meet everyone.

Comment by Marti Jacob's Mom on December 2, 2010 at 10:55am: Hi all can't wait for this day to be done. I cant leave until my last day care child is picked up. So we will not be under way until 6:00 tonight, so will be into the Hotel around 10:00. It should be a four hour car ride. Hope weather is not that bad. See you all tomorrow. Cant wait!!

Comment by Dodie on December 2, 2010 at 10:02am: Hi All:) I've printed approx 140 name tags for the Meet & Greet 6p-8p at the Ramada Inn in Waukegan. The name tags will be for all of us that are N4Ms. The ramada Inn will also be supplying name tags that can be used for all of our family members. Parking is limited at the front of the hotel. The receptionist said there is additional parking by the hotel restaurant. You can enter the door for the restaurant entrance. I left a message for the general manager with the current # attending (those that responded under the events tab) of 161...YEAH! I'm so excited to meet all of you tonight. Currently, there are snow flurries in central IL but no accumulation predicted. Accumulating snow predicted in Chicago area Friday night into Saturday. Please be safe on the roads...Se ya tonight:)
