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 NS on November 20, 2010 at 2:16am: Hoping I'll get one before 11/27 even though he left 11/9. I leave for Disney with my family for a week one 11/27 so I have an AWFUL feeling that I'm going to miss the first letter. I almost don't want to even go to Disney just so I can hear from him. =[
