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."

Hey Everyone! So my husband and I arrived at Kings Bay, GA about a week ago, and he went straight back to orientation, school, and more training. But, we're here, we got a really nice place on base, and the life here is really quiet, but not too bad. The bugs haven't really been bothering me either!

Hello everyone! My husband is in A School and he just got his paper orders for Kings Bay, GA. On the orders it says something about SWFLANT and Marine Corp Security Force Battalion. If anyone has a son or daughter that has been stationed there, or if any of you ladies have followed your man there, any advice or information on the area and anything else would be very appreciated!! Thank you!!!
