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 andbran on May 26, 2011 at 12:31am: i think last nites storm was the worst we have seen in awhile. i work at the eastchase target in ft worth. we actuallly had to go the back of the store for about 30 minutes until it passed.

Comment by quiltblue on May 25, 2011 at 6:17pm: I am from North Dallas, these last storms were the scariest I have ever been in, God protected us and we didn't get any damage. Some areas got soft-ball to grapefruit size hail! So glad to hear about "ombudsman", I know that once my son finishes schools I will really need that contact!

Comment by Matt's Mom/Cathy on May 25, 2011 at 10:16am: Brian's Mom you will also find a telephone number (careline) that you can call and get an update on what is happening on the ship. The message is updated every Sunday. Also check out the USSRR Facebook page because you may spot your sailor in one of the pictures that they post.

Comment by Alysia-Redsmom (VQ-4/ATO) on May 25, 2011 at 9:13am: Prayers for all you Dallas area Ladies who have dealt with the latest battles of Mother Nature ~ be strong & stay safe!

Comment by Brian's Mom on May 25, 2011 at 8:29am: Julie, thanks for your kind words. It is great to get encouragement like this. And I know you are right. He'll call when he is ready and has been able to adjust.
