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 Felicia TEXASNAVYMOM on November 2, 2012 at 7:23pm: P.S. Don't use their last names. Just their first names.

Comment by Felicia TEXASNAVYMOM on November 2, 2012 at 5:38pm: Hey moms of diving recruits! What are your son's names. That way when I write my son and I can tell him that I am in contact with (So and So's mom on this site)

I know Marys is named Conor and Cameron belongs to run2befree. I have already mentioned them to Jared. (Jared is my son's name) I just hope they are making friends. They are going to need that support group. I am sure the military instills that, but still. I feel like my kid just went of to kindergarten. I will have to mention Anthony to Jared.

@dortphil...what is your son's name
