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 16, 2010 at 12:36am: I hear that a lot about missing getting the letters. Luckily he has always been a letter writer for me. He has written me quite a few letters before he left I've always loved that about him. Hopefully it will continue after RTC.. I'm sure it will though. I'm glad he wrote me a lot of letters before he left because now I read them and it brings me right back to the moment he gave it to me
