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 Mo on April 20, 2010 at 8:56pm: Congrats to all. My son is scheduled to PIR 5/7. Can you tell me what time you received the I'm a sailor call? Also, were the division colors decided by your group or are there standard colors for each division. Congratulations again to all the recruits, and families of the recruits, that passed battlestations.

Comment by Oneofalot on April 20, 2010 at 8:50pm: My daughter call the house instead of calling me at work. I think she forgot about the time zone thing. That really sucked that I missed her call. She sound like she was almost in tears since she couldn't get hold of me or my husband. At least she got hold of my sister.
