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 shoprat on August 8, 2011 at 10:11pm: tina41, Congratulations on your letter! At least one more of us can relax a little bit; I too am jealous. 39 days till PIR!!!

Comment by Boys R Us(ship07/div303) on August 8, 2011 at 9:48pm: tina41...looks like we'll both be getting phonecalls on Wed> YAY!!! Can't wait. I've already warned my boss that if we're in the middle of working on a patient and my phone rings I'm outta there and he's on his own! lol!!!

Comment by cluebee on August 8, 2011 at 8:34pm: My SR arrived at RTC on 7/20. Some was good, some not so good. He said he passed his swim test - yay! He said they were about to have their first inspection on Friday. I guess I will hear how that goes later. Not so good, he didn't pass all parts of the first PFA on the first go-round. He just needs another go at it and it'll be fine.

Comment by proudmom (311)(HS Corpsman mom) on August 8, 2011 at 8:23pm: No letter for me either!!1 It is nice to hear about everyone elses. The mailman did bring the cable bill. He could've kept that. lol
