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 Gman Navy Husband on February 10, 2010 at 2:21pm: Rickswife, I hear on the in-laws, but in my case it is my mom. She is constantly asking if I have heard from my wife! Every single day!!
Yesterday was a great day for me, not, I got fired for not wanting to drive in the bad weather!! Yeah for me, now I can move as soon as I find out where my wife is going hopefully!

Comment by hismomdeeship7div103 on February 10, 2010 at 10:10am: No school here in Ohio but the snow has finally stopped. We are driving to PIR so we can leave whenever we feel we need to. I don't care if we have to drive 10 mph, we are going!

Comment by dreams on February 9, 2010 at 10:20pm: Such great reading on here! I tend to read more than I post, and it's been a real help these past few weeks! Thank you guys so much. I almost feel addicted to this site - every day I have to read and see who's heard what and how things are going. So many of you have touched me with your stories and outreaching to the others on this site. No wonder our sons/daughters/husbands & wives are turning into such heroes - look at all of you!!!! I can't wiat to see our sailors!!!!

Comment by Debbie on February 9, 2010 at 9:54pm: Navyblueeyes - what a lovely post! Very thoughtful and meaningful. Just wanted you to know that upon your recommendation I looked up Blue Star Mothers - that was powerful stuff. Long story short - I joined our local chapter, just waiting to hear back form them.
Everyone - Hope we all receive great news this weekend in the form of letters/calls. We are almost there - a little over two weeks we will be watching our loved ones be celebrated. I start to tear up just thinking about it. Have a great evening!

Comment by hismomdeeship7div103 on February 9, 2010 at 6:17pm: Did not get my valentine sent today and am afraid the mail won't go tomorrow because of the snow

Comment by Gman Navy Husband on February 9, 2010 at 6:14pm: Rickswife, agreed!! Being put out this early, just wait, it will get a lot more interesting, I can almost promise you that!

Comment by RicksWifeAmber on February 9, 2010 at 5:36pm: They are trying to get through every day with out messing up! They shouldn't be bothered with whether or not we've gotten our DEERS packets!
