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."

got a busy day today- gotta go buy "chicago kind of clothes"- and a heavy coat for my son, who refuses to wear warm clothes- still running around in a T-shirt. He thinks we are still in Florida weather...I'll check back in later this afternoon. Everyone have a wonderful day!

Monica I understand that each division has a sister division, ours would be 914. From what I understand both groups will be broken down into smaller groups and sent in with the smaller groups, but that the sister division would have battlestations at the same time. I may be wrong on this
Comment by crystaldj1972 6/915 on February 16, 2010 at 11:26am
Clarissa, Battlestations should be next week, monday thru wednesday. Not all of us know when exact schedule is per division. Maybe we will all get letters today stating when it will be!
