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 Olivezick on July 6, 2011 at 10:58pm: Just realized my purse might be too big to take into the PIR hall. It''s about14 " wide and 9" high. Folks in the know--will this size purse be okay, or is that too big? Thanks! Go 225, 226, 815!

Comment by Offtrack on July 6, 2011 at 10:05pm: Can someone point me to the "what to bring to PIR" checklist? All packed up for tomorrow's flight but wanted to doublecheck. Thanks!

Comment by diannep on July 6, 2011 at 9:35pm: They could have gone last night, who knows? It could have been 223, 224, 934 and 815. Is anyone in this group from 815? I noticed they didn't have a discussion group above.

Or...they could be going tonight!

Awwww...thanks for the nice compliment. I enjoy doing this...I am the one who feels blessed that I can help out along with all of the other wonderful veteran moms!
