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."

I am inquiring about staying at the Navy Lodge for PIR March 4th.  Not too sure how to go about doing this.  Do I need to be in the military myself in order to stay here? 

Comment by Mama Candy on January 16, 2016 at 6:03pm

I will be staying at the navy lodge for PIR 1/22.  My daughter is in 076 and will be going to Charleston for A school.  Anyone else in 076?
