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."

Congrats to your Honor Recruit!

Comment by diannep on April 14, 2011 at 4:08pm: ...unless he has watch on PIR day...then he may lose some time...

Comment by diannep on April 14, 2011 at 4:08pm: Doubt that is true, MirrorMaiden, but have no doubt he was told that. Games people play, if you know what I'm saying! :-) He should have Fri PIR liberty until about 8 or 9 pm.

Comment by MirrorMaiden88 on April 14, 2011 at 4:04pm: So I got a letter from my husband and it said he only had on base liberty? Is that what usually what happens? He is leaving Saturday for Groton, CT.

Comment by Megs-Sailor Wife on April 14, 2011 at 4:03pm: Ok just got off the phone with Sarge. He said we should just drive from our hotel to the ceremony. Now here is my other question.......Does anyone know or was anyones loved one an Honor Recruit? Just wanted to know if there is any tips for where we need to park because we have to check in at the Public Affairs office first. Thanks! :-)

Comment by Megs-Sailor Wife on April 14, 2011 at 3:04pm: Otay ladies we were going to take the shuttle from our hotel but it seems as though it won't leave to give us enough time to comfortabily get there. We have to be there at 7:15. So taxi seems to be the best way. I know someone was talking about a person that is well known. If anyone could give any info about taking a taxi that would be great. We want to get there with plenty of time and not rush around. Thanks a bunch!!!! <3
