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 debschnell on November 26, 2011 at 8:10pm: My sailor called three times on Thanksgiving and last night. Each call is a treasure, and we leap for the phone when we see him on Caller ID. It's very doubtful he'll be home for Christmas.

Comment by jean on November 26, 2011 at 2:33pm: the game starts at 2:30p.m. est since it is in Washington DC

I am open to breakfast or lunch.

Comment by TXNavyMom on November 26, 2011 at 12:09pm: I just fed mine breakfast Brenda Sue. I forgot how nice it was to cook a big breakfast and have it all eaten.
Hate to think about tomorrow though when he has to leave.

Comment by txsailorsam-Donna on November 26, 2011 at 11:28am: Happy for all who have their sailor with them. Lit a candle for mine. Can't wait to see him in early spring.

Comment by Brenda Sue on November 26, 2011 at 11:16am: I got you beat, Donna! Mine is asleep in his own bed!! Just waiting for him to wake up so I can make biscuits, gravy and sausage and eggs!

Sorry, just had to brag!! First time he has been home since June of last year! Last time for him to be home until he no longer is in the Navy! He will have served five years and four deployments!

Comment by Rhonda on November 25, 2011 at 12:06am: Congrats PNM I can tell you had a great Thanksgiving!!

Comment by ProudNavyMom on November 24, 2011 at 11:21pm: I was able to talk to my son 3 times and he texted me a pic that someone took of him on their cell phone!! What a blessed Thanksgiving it was!!! Only 7 more days to PIR!!! woo hoo!!!
