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 Karen (KC's mom) on September 8, 2009 at 1:39am: Ray Ray, Check over in Events for the Starbuck's Get Together on Sat Sept 12th.

I may not make it since I forgot there was an event coming up this weekend I normally attend every year.

Comment by Karen (KC's mom) on September 3, 2009 at 12:43am: Who is planning it and where would the next MeetnGreet be?

Orange is south of Anaheim and a couple hours north of SD.

Comment by Karen (KC's mom) on August 30, 2009 at 9:40pm: I'm glad to see everybody had a wonderful time at the meetngreet! Sorry but i was unable to make it there.

Anybody is welcome to come to the coffee get-together coming up on the 12th in Orange. It is listed under Events.

Comment by Karen (KC's mom) on August 21, 2009 at 1:02am: I posted the coffee get together under Events for Sat Sept 12th.

Comment by Karen (KC's mom) on August 17, 2009 at 12:45am: Let's try for Sat, Sept 12th around 1 or 1:30pm.?

Comment by Karen (KC's mom) on August 12, 2009 at 11:48am: Actually, a Sat may work out best for me since my son may be up on a Sunday. But even if it does fall on a Sunday maybe I'll bring my son along with me. He enjoys Starbuck's too.

Comment by Karen (KC's mom) on August 10, 2009 at 7:53pm: Maybe the second weekend on Sept 12th or 13th around 1pm or earlier? Shops open around 10am and close by 5pm.

Comment by KatK on August 10, 2009 at 1:37pm: Let me know when and I'll be there!

Comment by Karen (KC's mom) on August 9, 2009 at 9:13pm: Yes, we should Laura.

Comment by KatK on August 9, 2009 at 12:04pm: Coffee and shopping always sounds good! Also, someone who lives in South County, I get to see more of North County OC.
