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 JazNavyMom on May 3, 2011 at 5:31pm: I have a sailor Div 165 all passed

Comment by diannep on May 3, 2011 at 5:16pm: Hoping that 165/166 are getting ready to make their calls!

Comment by diannep on May 3, 2011 at 5:16pm: navysis: He should have toiletries from bc...I would wait and buy for him in GL if he needs others. Of course, this all has to be given to him at the airport...unless he is going to GL A School...in that case, you can give it to him after he has cleared out of RTC. I wouldn't bring too many civilian clothes...can't wear them for a while...has to phase up. You can mail more later.

Comment by diannep on May 3, 2011 at 5:10pm: DefianceMom: Congrats on your new sailor!
