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 AlyciasMom on April 23, 2010 at 9:35pm: My daughter got hurt real bad today during her PFA. She is in the VA northern chicago. She fractured her femur at the ball of her hip and dislocated her hip. She had surgery today. I am flying out in the AM.

Comment by Stephanie-Sub-Wife on April 23, 2010 at 2:51pm: thank you for the advice :) I would really like it if Anthony had to stay in Groton to finish up A-school. I guess we will be playing it by ear until we get any written word :) anyway, we have less than two weeks remaining :-D I am so excited

Comment by Stephanie-Sub-Wife on April 23, 2010 at 12:11pm: He said July 10th he finishes A-school, But he has additional schooling somewhere else and he isn't sure where that is... So I guess they are in the same boat so to speak... I wonder when we find out? They do get 14 days leave after they finish A-school in july though :)

Comment by Stephanie-Sub-Wife on April 23, 2010 at 11:39am: I guess I'll be at the airport with you Sandy, Anthony and Corey are both going to Conn.

Comment by Stephanie-Sub-Wife on April 23, 2010 at 11:38am: :(

Comment by zach'smom on April 23, 2010 at 7:48am: I agree with moms2sailorsx3, We are going to be there to watch one of our family members graduate & we are not going to be in a fashion show. Our sailors will care less what we are wearing, they just want to see us. Wear what will make you comfortable like she said, it will be a long morning & walking & climbing bleachers.
