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 2NavySons on November 4, 2010 at 8:37pm: Thanks Chris! Well, he's put in for the Growler. But his wife said he won't know if he gets it yet. She thinks he will though! He got into officer's program through Seaman's to Admirals, then got his degree, then onto flight school. He's done all this with a wife and now 6 children...I don't think that's been done in the history of the Navy...but then again...I haven't researched it. I'm very proud of him.

Comment by 2NavySons on November 4, 2010 at 6:40pm: My son is getting winged next week...trying to get a gift and I really enjoyed all the ideas I found on this website!

Comment by pgrlisa on November 3, 2010 at 4:24pm: I have a friend who is very active in Soldier's Angels. They adopt entire units to send packages to. She's always looking for stuff and help with packages. They also give out "dog tags". I don't know if those are in packages or hand delivered to returning troops. Some of the guys in the PTSD unit at our local VA hospital have them. It is a respectible organization.

Comment by Tamara on November 1, 2010 at 6:03pm: Thank you....meant 12/05/10.

Comment by Paymaster on November 1, 2010 at 3:03pm: Tamara....Welcome to the group.

Do you mean 5-12-11?

Comment by Tamara on November 1, 2010 at 2:28pm: Hi, just joined the group. Our son is in the OCS class starting 05/12/10.

Comment by Sweet*Southern*Lady on November 1, 2010 at 12:01am: I know the DB really appreciated those who cooked especially while underway.

Comment by Sweet*Southern*Lady on October 31, 2010 at 9:03pm: LZ27, Your so right. Every job in the navy does have a purpose to keep it running.

Comment by LZ27 on October 31, 2010 at 8:43pm: My son was not too happy about my posting "The Navy at it's best" about the flyover in SF. He rmeinded me my dad and son are seabees. So to all the bees out there. Those little F-18's would never get off the ground if the bees did not engineer and build the runways for them to take off. So there my son my son you are part of the best of the Navy! Dang gotta be careful what you say...these bees can be very sensitive. Just don't tell my dad what I said!

Comment by lsP3Orion on October 31, 2010 at 6:38pm: I love the I SPEED FOR A LIVING - unfortunately, P3 pilots don't go as fast! Hey, maybe that's a new saying for a T-shirt :)
