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 navywife10 on April 22, 2010 at 12:37pm: Thanks Stephanie :) did they say how long it takes to come in?

Comment by Stephanie( Mrs. Davis) on April 22, 2010 at 11:22am: Navywife10- here is the phone number972-347-6655. Here is a link to the order form page. Don't use that contact information besides email because they were in the process of moving and that information is wrong. I would hurry and get it ordered if you plan on wearing it for graduation
