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 DebbieD-Sailor Mom on March 5, 2011 at 11:34pm: Our SR said they would have a briefing about liberty on 3/11...talked to him earlier today.

Comment by abrock06 (USS Benfold) on March 5, 2011 at 11:30pm: my SR called me today and still thought that he was going to get overnight liberty so i don't know when they are going to tell them that they will no longer be granted overnight liberty.

Comment by Jean H (ship 12 Div 091) on March 5, 2011 at 11:21pm: my son was told he would have overnight liberty.

Comment by Nellz15 on March 5, 2011 at 11:12pm: my SR was told he would, just last week im guessing by the letter

Comment by Amymichelle09(Ship 12,Div. 100) on March 5, 2011 at 11:08pm: How many families were told that their Sailors would have overnight liberty. I am trying to get an idea how many we are talking about....

Comment by Lala Ribbon Queen PIR Ribbons on March 5, 2011 at 10:39pm: Yeah I wish they would post pics from Captains Cup every week. I think those lake week for the first ones I had seen on here since July and they said that was a special event as well. :-( But maybe the pics of the week will have your sailors in it. I will keep my fingers crossed for you.

Comment by YMM (Ship 12 Div 98) on March 5, 2011 at 10:01pm: Rivergal,

Maybe they will change it by Friday, There is still a little hope.

Comment by rivergal on March 5, 2011 at 9:48pm: Thank you YMM. That is very disappointing but at least I get to see him. He has been there since Nov. 16, 2010.

Comment by YMM (Ship 12 Div 98) on March 5, 2011 at 9:46pm: This was posted on the TSC Facebook wall 11 minutes ago. Here's everyone's chance to be heard.

Training Support Center (TSC) Great Lakes I am trying to determine what people have been told by whom. It is not my intent to affect people who were told they would have liberty. I need to know who told them. The new plan will go in affect but I did not want to impact people with plans. Still working this. Talk to me folks. Who told your sailor they would have liberty.

Comment by YMM (Ship 12 Div 98) on March 5, 2011 at 9:42pm: Rivergal, The policy has been changed, so there will be no more overnight liberty starting with the 3-11-11 PIR class.
