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 Alicia(12/053 - AO)♥ on April 17, 2011 at 5:51pm: @Laura, I think that's a great idea!! @Sue, wow, that awesome, blue hands and all!

Comment by Sue-Pillowcase lady on April 17, 2011 at 5:13pm: I boxed and mailed 228 pillowcases for the Bush, going out next month. Lots of work but so rewarding when I get them mailed. Today I am tie dyeing some plain white ones for the Bush. I never did that before and I am having a blast, but I have blue hands cause I forgot the gloves!

Comment by Alicia(12/053 - AO)♥ on April 15, 2011 at 7:47pm: Anyone doing anything fun and exciting this weekend? Weather will be beautiful! I am thinking of hiking with my son up Tumamac Hill on Saturday. Will be good for his physical training and good for me too!

Comment by Sue-Pillowcase lady on April 14, 2011 at 12:43am: go to the main page of groups, sort for most active and the boot camp group is right at the top.
