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 annamichael on April 22, 2011 at 10:24pm: 144 had an extra hour..9pm. YAY CNO! So thankful for that extra hour. IT was bittersweet. Can't wait to see him tomorrow AM at the airport. Lunch - Jason's Deli.. AWESOME. Dinner - Philly Cheese steak place.. okay. We just relaxed, went to Best Buy and he bought his first laptop (: YAY FOR SKYPE! And just spent valuable time together. I would like to say thank you to EVERYONE on this sight. I plan to continue to check and add to it, but you all have been SO very helpful. Thank you and CONGRATULATIONS to you and your new SAILOR!!
