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 Boys R Us(ship07/div303) on September 12, 2011 at 7:07pm: @sbabrber that breaks my heart! When did this happen? It's horrible! It really puts things in check. Just when you think you have a lot of crap you're dealing with...things could be so much worse. Give thanks for all that we have!

Comment by sbarber on September 12, 2011 at 6:12pm: Oh this time I agree with Anita I would LOVE to know if they all passed as most of you know my son was set back a little over 7 weeks with his knee injury....... So I'm especially hoping that they have all passed and that today is the ONE & ONLY day I don't want a phone call........praying, praying, praying. I'm also on TX Moms and we have suffered a huge loss a family(mom,dad,brother) were on theur way to SanDiego to welcome home their son/brother on the USS Ronald Regan and were killed in an auto accident outside of Tuscon please pray for this poor sailor and his family. God bless us one and all.

Comment by cluebee on September 12, 2011 at 5:31pm: I told my students today that today was my Wednesday. They all looked at me like I was nuts, but then remembered about me being out Thursday and Friday. They are really happy for all of us, though, and have requested tons o pictures. A lot of them are thinking about joining the Navy, as we have a huge presence in my neck of the woods.
