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."

oops sorry for the spelling and I even double checked. It depends on where the ship is not they. sorry.
Comment by Jan on February 21, 2010 at 4:35pm
kelli I think it depends on just where they ship was when the packages mail was sent. Some make it quickly others are set aside until the next port. Hopefully he'll get it monday. tomorrow. when things catch up with them. We have sent 3 packages and none yet have arrived. It is so hard to know we pray for patience and continue to be there for your sailor if you get really concerned call the ombudsman and they can track down what is up. They really want to help and be there for the families They really don't want you to worry call em

Comment by ryanswifey on February 21, 2010 at 4:05pm
