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 Sherry James on April 25, 2009 at 10:10pm: Hi all,

Tonight I had the blessing to celebrate a neighbor and good friends auntie's 90th birthday!! Wow, imagine that 90 years old and reasonably healthy. Anyway sorry I missed out on all the fun with drinks and whatnots but it was actually warm in MI this weekend so I took advantage of it. Hope that everyone is having a great weekend also!! Goodnight all.

Comment by Mark on April 25, 2009 at 7:12pm: Wendy,
It's good to hear that Jim is getting nicely settled in NY. Getting settled in their place for the start of prototype is a very exciting time in a nuc's life, and one he'll never forget. Best of luck to him there - let's hope for no more lengthy shutdowns. We have a team here at Puget Sound Naval Shipyard that is doing mockup training for a job at one of the sites in NY soon, I can't remember which of the plants they'll be working on, I think either S8G or S3G/MARF. I don't think that particular shutdown will be much more than a month, though...
