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 C's proud mom (Ship 3 Div 175) on June 5, 2012 at 4:20pm: Got my "im a sailor call"! Got to talk for an hour! Yay! Can't wait for grad. 3 days!

Comment by JGMOM on June 5, 2012 at 4:16pm: We have a sailor! Yes!!! Just got my call...could have been sooner but that little stinker got on the internet for an hour BEFORE calling home! :) Too funny!!! Can't wait to see him on Friday!

Comment by SarahsMom(Ship03/Div176) on June 5, 2012 at 3:53pm: I heard from my daughter. SHE is official now. Very excited be very tired. We leave for GL in the morning.YEAH!!!

Comment by diannep on June 5, 2012 at 3:52pm: s amburgey: What a wonderful accomplishment for your sailor! He will keep it off since they have to continue PT during school and when at duty station, and they are tested twice a year, just like in bootcamp. So he has much motivation to stay his sleek muscular new self! I bet he feels wonderful too. I know you are so very proud of him!

Comment by diannep on June 5, 2012 at 3:50pm: Yep, some get on FB before they can get to the phones! They are able to purchase internet time (cheap) if they want.

So glad that some of the calls are starting...at least, according to FB! Hoping to see "happy posts" from ladies of new US Navy Sailors on here soon! HOOYAH!

Comment by flgirltwo on June 5, 2012 at 3:40pm: I couldn't figure out how she got on FB. Texted my son and he said after BS21 and you've made your call, sometimes you get to go to Recruit heaven and get access to computer! Lucky her!
