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 Cassandra Rose on April 30, 2010 at 6:19pm: I really hope you're right mom2sailorsX3! Because if their battlestations were the 5th that'd mean the call is on the 6th and I will be flying during the time they're expected to get the call :[

Keep me posted on what you hear about this! Thanks!
And my recruit is in the same position- got there Tuesday 1am and was assigned his division Thursday as well. Not complaining they're a push division and on the fast track! A week less to wait seems like such a huge blessing.

Comment by old mom on April 30, 2010 at 5:54pm: what is a push division?

Comment by Stephanie-Sub-Wife on April 30, 2010 at 5:48pm: Just got off the phone for an hour with my SAILOR<3

Comment by old mom on April 30, 2010 at 5:47pm: Sandy I am so excited for you and Corey. What a misserable last few days it's been for you both. But it's passed now and on to BS and graduation. YEA. God hears the prayers and this is sooooo a testament of that.
