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 I_love_Thomas on June 10, 2010 at 11:02am: Really? I must have missed that. I spent $45 and have the exact dollar amount to get back to the airport. If I can make it to the meet and greet, I'd love to!

Comment by I_love_Thomas on June 10, 2010 at 10:36am: I don't know how far the Ramada Inn is from the Days Inn in North Chicago, but I might not be able to make it. I spent the last of my available money on the taxi to get to my hotel this morning. Everyone have fun, though!

Comment by LMC -mom of 2 Sailors! on June 10, 2010 at 6:31am: Congrats to today's new Sailors! Safe travels and see ya real soon.

Comment by Travis' Mom Cindy Ship11/Div212 on June 10, 2010 at 6:14am: Got the call! He sounded exhausted but said they won first place in BS. Also said he thought they should have won Captains Cup but didn't work out that way. I guess our Div came together after all! TC will be front row behind the flags, furthest right. I'm gonna have a bead on him the entire ceremony! I can't wait to meet you all! I'm so very proud of them ALL! We're flying out of Texas at 9 am so we should have plenty of time to make it to Meet and Greet. See y'all soon.

Comment by Sallee_Ty'sMom on June 10, 2010 at 1:43am: The last Div is going through BS-21 at this very moment...keep all the recruits in your thoughts...my boy is in the midst...can't wait to celebrate with ALL of you...

Comment by JudyB. on June 10, 2010 at 12:01am: Hi Krystal. Good night get good rest and safe travels and well see you tomorrow !!

Comment by Krystal(Trevor'swife) on June 9, 2010 at 11:58pm: Hey everyone! This is probably my last login tonight. We are leaving in 4 hours for the airport and should be landing in Chicago at 9:40 am central time...hopefully that's early enough for us to not to miss the Sailor call! He is doing Battlestations right now...I know he's doing great :)

Comment by JudyB. on June 9, 2010 at 11:51pm: Olga, So glad you made it to GL safe and sound!! I can't wait to see you!! and everyone safe travels and see you at the Ramada Inn tomorrow night...God speed!!

Comment by LMC -mom of 2 Sailors! on June 9, 2010 at 11:31pm: maybe it will be quiet because they will all be sleeping from celebrating. :D we could only hope.

Comment by WendyG on June 9, 2010 at 11:28pm: I bet traffic will be crazy right soon in the Great Lakes and surrounding area being that Chicago Blackhawks just won the Stanley Cup... Everyone drive careful!
