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."

Dear moms and wives, I created this group so we could all stay current on events and get questions answered as we needed them.  My daughter has decided to get out of the Navy.  I want you and others to be able to continue using each other and this group as a tool.  Thanks for everything!  Tracy

Excellent point, missinhim...  thank you for posting this very important comment.

Comment by missinghimtillimkissinhim on November 10, 2011 at 10:37am

IF anyone is in need of the Homecoming date please contact the ombudsman of the ship.. Please DO NOT pass the date along thru any kind of messages,texts or emails. Due to OPSEC passing the date along thru these ways could allow the enemy to get the date and can allow them to prepare for an attack or make it so the ship cuts off all contacts to our SO's. Not trying to be mean or anything I just would like my husband home on time safely. .

Yes
Comment by Jaime1019 on November 8, 2011 at 10:40am
It is the same date we already had.
Comment by TinaG on November 8, 2011 at 10:19am

This whole date thing is making me anxious... did they just lock in the date we already know or did they change it to a different date?

I am so ready for them to come home!!

Comment by melisity on November 8, 2011 at 6:09am
I can't wait to see my man come home. I hope it's soon.
Comment by Monarch06 on November 7, 2011 at 8:00pm
Oh ok...well that is awsome if they do have some kind of date. I would really like to know when that is along with everyone else. I am waiting on that email as well.
