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 clipart;ship11;div298;pir9/2 on September 1, 2010 at 5:29am: Up early saying prayers for the BS groups and my daughter who is traveling home, so she can travel with us to Great Lakes and all the early travelers... It will be so much fun to meet up and compare notes with everyone... Thank you Navy4Moms site!!!

Comment by PeggyM on September 1, 2010 at 4:46am: Good morning to those still left.. we are leaving louisville in a few minutes and cant wait to get there. See everyone tonite and most of all, see our sailor tomorrow..safe travels to all

Comment by Craig on September 1, 2010 at 2:03am: Tisha - It doesn't matter if your son joins my website or somewhere else, as long as he's part of some Navy forum support site. Just like a bar, everyone has unique features. Just find the one that you like, and meets your needs. The bottom-line is to always have somewhere where you can find the answers.

Comment by Craig on September 1, 2010 at 1:19am: Brenda - He will go crazy with those kids. That will show what family is all about. Make dang sure their hands are super clean with they run and jump on him. He needs to keep that uniform super clean.

Trisha - I have alot of crazy Navy friends that send me stuff all the time. My inbox on my computer is just full of stuff that just cracks me up. It really helps because I have two Navy forum websites and I need things that keep the deppers, and also the parents involved. Just like the post about the SS Minnow below. I knew I had the funny one about Titan Uranus. I love that name, it just so funny.

Beleive me, there is alot of stuff I can't post too. People love when I share some of my own personnel Navy stories. The story about my time in bootcamp is one of the funnier ones. I have them rolling on the floor, but N4M has alot of different types of people on it, and I need to keep some of the stuff toned down, or have alot of alcohol to tell some of them. By running my own website, I keep my moderators really busy... but we really have alot of fun, plus were not monitored by the Navy....-ha

Comment by Tisha Div 290 PIR 9/02 on September 1, 2010 at 1:00am: Well, Craig, you have definitely entertained us. My son has shared with some of the others guys about the CAC card. and he definitely wants to join your sight. See you at the G and G!

Comment by Tisha Div 290 PIR 9/02 on September 1, 2010 at 12:06am: craig, one more for the books, where do you get this stuff!?!

Comment by Brenda (Div 293 PIR 9/2/2010) on September 1, 2010 at 12:06am: Craig - the oldest 2 come over and always want to get their uncle to come hang out with them (they are 2 & 4 years old)./ We keep reminding them he is at camp. The oldest says, "but his car is here." It will be a fun morning!

Comment by Tisha Div 290 PIR 9/02 on September 1, 2010 at 12:05am: Brenda, Adorable!

Comment by Brenda (Div 293 PIR 9/2/2010) on September 1, 2010 at 12:04am: thanks Jessica - their uncle's request was that they all be there on Thursday! They are special to him.
