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 TN Navy Mom (Stennis Nuke Mom) on July 8, 2010 at 11:26am: Rebecca M. - when I saw a scant 30% chance for this afternoon, I put my hanging ferns AND all of my flower pots from the porch on the ground. Maybe that way I'll catch a drop or two if they come my way! Plus our vegetables are looking a little sad!

Comment by TN Navy Mom (Stennis Nuke Mom) on June 24, 2010 at 5:09pm: judyann - so sorry for the loss of your mom. No matter how ill or how much pain, it is so difficult to let go. Bless you for releasing your mom from the earthly pain. Sometimes our loved ones need to hear our voice one more time before they go. Will remember you in prayer.

Comment by TN Navy Mom (Stennis Nuke Mom) on June 24, 2010 at 4:40pm: Sighthndlady- my sailor is MM too. We definitely plan to visit Goose Creek. My youngest brother (13 years younger) lives in Charlotte NC with his wife and kids. I usually go visit them once a year so this next trip will be to the Biltmore, my brother's and Goose Creek. When my sailor hits Phase III they plan on going to my brother's too. Plus, my brother and sister in law are planning a day trip to Goose Greek when my MM phases up. They want to take the sailor and wife to Hominy Grill for a treat.

Comment by sjr23 on June 23, 2010 at 9:14am: Hi Wanda - welcome to TN! What kind of A school did your son go to for training to become a Navy Chaplain? Just curious! :)
