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 ProudNavyMomNanette on May 31, 2011 at 12:22am: Same here, MidwestMom. We're anxiously waiting. Hope everyone had a fun and safe holiday weekend!

Comment by MidwestMom on May 30, 2011 at 5:37pm: No call yet. Maybe later this week.

Comment by Susie2916 on May 30, 2011 at 5:03pm: @Midwest Mom - Aren't we all addicted. Trying to figure out if one had received a call or letter from their kid's division and to keep up with the rest of the information that comes up. I have carried my cell with me every where. My husband always ask when we leave the house or go out into the yard if I have my cell. OF COURSE I DO. I always say that is a silly question. I keep tabs on the site when my internet is up. Here lately they keep working on it somewhere. Which stinks.

@ everyone - I have enjoyed all the posts about Memorial Day and the poems. They are great. I hope everyone has had a nice Memorial Weekend. I have been trying to clean my pool and get it ready for summer. God Bless all of our Soldiers in the past, present and most definetly future.....

Comment by Rob(ship12 div.219) on May 30, 2011 at 4:10pm: The American flag does not fly because the wind moves past it...the American flag flies from the last breath of each military member who has died protecting it. American soldiers don't fight because they hate what's in front of them...they fight because they love what's behind them." ♥ Re-Post this if you Support your Troops!! God Bless America. Ship-12, Div-219

Comment by Karleen ship 3 div 221 on May 30, 2011 at 3:33pm: Happy Memorial Day to all the military families for their sacrifice and those in hte military for their service.
