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 carols_kitchen on March 3, 2011 at 8:16pm: Oh Tropikal--that is so wonderful! I"m praying you have a phone call soon.

Comment by TropikalParadize on March 3, 2011 at 8:02pm: God thank you so much!! I was praying and praying and praying that I would get my first letter from my husband today who is in bootcamp. I was trying to have faith in Him that He would answer my prayers, and also faith in my husband that he would write! Well the mail came today and I got 2 letters from him! A total of 5 pages! I couldn't stop crying I was so happy, and crying because I miss him so much. God answers all our prayers and keeps us strong so we can believe in Him. I also had a sign from Him as well today...as I was walking to check the mail (it had not arrived yet), I found a penny on the road. It was God's way of saying, "Its OK, of course you are going to get your letters today!" I love all the signs we see from God every day, we just have to watch and listen for Him. Praying that everyone who is expecting letters will get them soon.
