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 2, 2009 at 5:47pm: Thanks Cheryl, the church singles group sounds like a good idea, although around these here parts, many of the church's singles group are mostly women and very few men. Yes, I'm definitely VERY careful when I date no matter where/how I met the guy. Particularly though if he's an online meet.

Haven't we all met alcoholics, the crazy married guy trying to score and Larry the Loser guy out in the general population?! Sign of the times. BTW, how was the book? Did you like it?

Jon, hope you get a call this week from your son and it helps you to hang on for a while longer!

Comment by Sherry James on March 31, 2009 at 10:48pm: Hey Lauren ~ good for you to get out there on Match.com! My friends and I have met really nice folks through the online services. Just beware of computer guy, you know the one who is always on the prowl, even after he swears he in a relationship with you but you notice he's still dating. Love if there were a legit Christian dating site that I could look into. Any suggestions?
