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 Jenacfs on April 20, 2011 at 10:13pm: Hey All, i got to speak with my Sailor and he sounded wonderful and so happy. He is so excited about me and the family going there for him. He told me the rules during PIR and photo taking. They are very strict but i do understand. His flight is to Florida and he leaves base at 2:30am and gets on the plane at 7am. I am on cloud nine right now and can't wait till friday. So proud of him and all the other Sailors.

Comment by cclivingston on April 20, 2011 at 9:36pm: YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!DAnielle I'm sooooooo happy for you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Comment by CDanielleR on April 20, 2011 at 9:12pm: YAY!!!!!! I'm so happy! He said that he passed yesterday, but he wasn't able to call yesterday. He said he was going to call me earlier but he knew I was at work. He said he does battlestations tomorrow and then he goes right to the graduation. He said something about if he talks to the chief he "may" be able to march with his division. I'm so happy! I have been crying for hours, my eyes are so swollen. And when I finally gave in to the thought he didn't pass and started cooking my dinner in defeat he called. :) Thank you all so much!!! Thank you for prayers and positive thoughts!!!!!

Comment by J'smomAME-Norfolk on April 20, 2011 at 9:05pm: he would do battlestation tomorrow with mine and then sit in the balcony during PIR!! they are almost sailors!!!!!
