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."

This week is the week that all of our SR's will be able to read all the mail we've been sending them!! Be sure to make letters supportive and loving. Let them know how proud we are of everything they're doing.

My son is in this group.  To feel closer to what his view of life at GLTC is, I check the weather site for that area every day. Its not the same as getting that first letter we're waiting for but its something.
