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 hisgirl2010 on October 27, 2010 at 8:41pm: i am a proud navy girlfriend :) and i miss the love of my life it sucks not being in his arms he left for boot camp yesterday morning

Comment by Corie on October 26, 2010 at 10:38pm: Yes, I can handle it, physical part not so much right now, not getting to see the bf at all I don't know if I could handle that. I just have no idea what to do.

Comment by Corie on October 26, 2010 at 10:31pm: I need some advice. So I want to join the Navy there are better opportunities medical benefits and getting to see different places, downside I will never get to see my BF, he is already in the Navy and we wont actually get to have a relationship. MY other option is to work my butt off to get scholarships and grants so I can go to college and I will get to see my bf a lot more. I don't know what to do, I am at a really big loss.
