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."

Oh and well for myself jsut thought Id let you all know- I am in the process of having a shirt made (which I stole the name from a facebook group but still thinks its cute so I stuck it on a shirt!)... it says "Complain about not seeing him for a week?- Try it Military style!" hehe It should be ready by next week I am so excited to show travis he will laugh!

Comment by NI39 on May 28, 2010 at 2:58am: 27 Days left!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :) We are on the down slope! Please everyone keep these guys in your daily prayers! :) Its not easy for them especially considering most of them have not been from home like this EVER! I was looking through my photo's of my son this evening I miss him like crazy...But I also know its probably the best thing for him! These guys and girls arent on substances or even able to drink for that matter. Its a great thing! They get to connect with themselves and make friends possibly for life! Not to mention they are making some money right now! Stay positive we are going to see them soon! Also we have the meet and greet...does anyone need more info? I hope we all can really get to know one another then! :) Any Ideas for t-shirts??????
