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 1stlove (02/946) on October 4, 2011 at 12:36pm: OK so here I am finally home...........You all knwo I have lots to say already lol....OS glad to be here at this point to wake up each morning to my sailors voice is awesome. So glad they have contact now. This weekend was amazing not just beacuse of my sailor graduation (ok so that is the most part) but really to be able to meet all my new friends in oerson at the PIR or at the meet n greet was awesome. I sure do have a very special place for all of you in my heart and am glad we will all stay in contact here and via facebook. So awesome to hear our kids stories. My sailor has problem shutting up anyways but she had lots to say this weekend. Was very nice that I was one of the fortunate ones that was able to spend the weekend with her that meant alot to me. To be able to drive around and make sure she had her essentials and her snacks was amazing.

I really didn't care for that LLLOOONNNGGG trip. yuck 3.5 hour flight and leaving at 3:30am on way there and on way back. well needless to say I am still on Chicago time as I found my self awake at 4am this am.

Well I am gonna go give some advise in the bootcamp group that learned that I want them to know....till later GOD BLESS & I LOVE YOU ALL

PR Veteran MOMS you rock all you do here is great. Thank you so much for being our mother hens.
