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 Anita n Ohio on April 16, 2012 at 8:50am: Stopping by and checking on the dust bunnies in our old room. Before you know it will be the one year anniversary we all sat on those bleachers watching our crew perform. My girl is still on "The Bush" getting ready to finally become an E3 (thanks to ROTC screwing up her paperwork...should of left boot camp an E3) and decide what her next career move is. I think she's tired of eating paint chips and wants to do something more with her Navy career LOL.

Hope everyone is doing well.
