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."

Tina, it is about working with recruiters, though.
Comment by Brenda Sue on April 26, 2010 at 9:11pm
Tina - go back to MAA moms - we answered in there and another mom gave some more advice. There may be more.
