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."

Maureen, I was just in to the 8-13 PIR group wvsuzanne noted the link in our group. There were comments about the Ramada being really bad. What is this about? Do you know any more details???

Hello,
There will 2 of us coming from Maine for PIR09/24/10 ceremony.
i wish i could make it = ( my flight comes in at 645 and i'm taking a shuttle to my hotel so i don't know if i'll be there in time. my hotel looks like its right down the street too
We aren't able to attend the M & G either because of the time our flight gets in. Maybe we can meet at the hotel. How are you getting to PIR on Friday?
