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 Tabitha on January 14, 2010 at 3:56pm: OK Doreen :) My hubby makes quick phone calls to me too b/c he's so busy trying to do assignments for class and having watch and studying so I totally feel your pain on the communication thing LOL Hopefully your son will have better luck w/his upcoming phone calls and you can figure some things out =)

Comment by Tabitha on January 14, 2010 at 2:49pm: I can't believe some of them have gotten orders already? Has he been given written orders or they just told him that's where he'll probably go? Sorry to keep bugging you, but I can't wait to find out where we'll be! LOL Thanks for any info :)
