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 kimstn on June 28, 2017 at 11:27am: Middle TN Navy mom here - would love to connect with other Navy families and make new friends. Anyone interested in meeting for coffee? or chatting online ?

Comment by Jan C on February 5, 2016 at 7:20pm: Our sailor is on his way home from duty on the Harry S. Truman over ... there. Hallelujah! He'll spend a couple weeks with us here in Columbia TN, then on to school and new orders. He has just re enlisted for another 6 years, which will take him to 19, at which point he will extend to get his 20.

Anyone in middle TN want to meet for lunch and brag about our awesome sailors?
