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."

Well, thanks for that information!  I too was SOOO looking forward to having some time with him.  Oh well.  I heard, however, that we can go to the airpoprt (if we find out when and where they're leaving from) and we can hang out with them there.  That's better than nothing! I'm not entirely sure, but I think we can also give them their cell phones and laptops.  But I woudl double check that.

Hey!  You need to delete the post on the PIR board that has your SR's last name.  No last names allowed on the board...Navy policy.  I have asked the other lady who replied to it and used your last name to delete hers also!  Thanks! Don't want your SR to have attention drawn to him.
