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."

cinder - I only have the raw video feeds, can you post the navy.mil link?   That way the video's are all lumped together and the write up will be there as well.  Like I said, they are great video's that most people should see....
Comment by cinder on February 3, 2011 at 12:23pm
That link is the one on navy.mil so maybe get to it that way. 
Comment by Craig on February 3, 2011 at 11:23am

All - Does anyone else have a problem getting at the link I posted 5 post before this one?  The reason I ask is N4M will not allow uploads a big files, so I post them on my website so you guys can get access. 

I have lots of Navy info that I can pass to you, but I need to make sure you can get in to see it.  So if you have a moment, please click the link about 5 post down from this one and see if you can get in.  That way I can troubleshoot why certain people can/can't.  Later on, I will be posting files that are huge, and like I said N4M don't allow due to size limit. 

Thanks for helping me, help you....

ProudNavyMom:  They are usually told if they are GradNGo about 3-4 weeks before PIR so they should know soon.
