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."

Thanks so much for making this page!  My boyfriend is now in bootcamp and we plan on getting married sometime before he begins active duty.  He is a Nuke so we still have a little time to plan.  I'm hoping we can have a real wedding and not a courthouse one, but it's so hard to plan with the Military Schedule!

Yes, you're close by, your son is cute in his sailor suit. I grew up in the Air Force 20 years all over the country. My son have been in the Navy for 15 years, now stationed in Sasebo, Japan.
