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 monty on March 23, 2010 at 6:52pm: My son did not get his pictures at boot camp, he had problems with his atm card.
Does anyone have any suggestion on how I can order them or where I can find out. My son said he will order them but I just want to make sure. I don't want to miss out.
