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 Kim on April 18, 2012 at 12:05am: Ahhhh. So sorry you guys. Can't make the next meet n greet. I have a wedding. So much to share. The Tiger Cruise aboard the CVN 74 was awesome. An experience of MY Lifetime. Lots of stories. Hope everyone is great. Hope to make the next one. Enjoy!

Comment by Bandito's Mom on April 12, 2012 at 10:45am: Yes, it does look like Damons wins. I need a volunteer to help set this up. They need to ensure that they have space and will reserve a table for us. I would guess a maximum of 10 people. Be willing to arrive early. --- Double check with the restaurant that 2pm is a good time, before we send the official invite.

I will be coming from the store in Venice Beach, so won't be able to be the "table holder". Please let me know who can do this for us.

Thanks,

Comment by FireTeamLeaderWife aka FTLW on April 10, 2012 at 6:09pm: Banditos Mom - When you decide on a place (it's looking like Damons :-) ), will you be creating an "Event"? If you do let me know, and I will post a link up in the Text Box area...with some kind of sign or do-dad!

I don't know if I'll be making this one either! :-(...have a family commitment but we'll see if it is going through.
