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."

Is anyone else here at the Quality Inn?
Comment by bahkmom09/86 on February 25, 2010 at 6:18pm
We are here at the Quality Inn...we also drove over to find the base since we will be driving in the morning. Good thing we did because we noticed that we need to be in the center lane when we turn on Buckley since the far right lane ends before the gate. Ate lunch at the Gojo cafe....very good food!

Hi All - just a quick note- we are getting ready to walk out the door to go to the airport and no call yet. Looks like noone has gotten a call yet by the inactivity on this site! Will check in with you all later!
Comment by True Grit on February 25, 2010 at 3:16pm
snow delayed out of NY caused us to miss our connecting flight, so rather than waiting till 5 :30 PM in Philly for another we have opted to fly to Pittsburgh then on to Chicago, About to start hitting the bar.

Colleen,
Did you drive all night?? Didn't you come from MD?
We are in Indiana now and the snow has stopped and the roads are dry. According to the GPS we should be there about 3 pm

yep- still up, cant sleep as always here lately. I am in Dallas, waiting to fly out in the morning. Gman, I am sure you will get your call. Your wife would call you if she was able. My son said that he didnt know of anyone in any division that didnt pass. But, I will say, after bs21 today they sent quite a few people to the dentist, soooo you never know. Good luck and safe travels!
