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 B'sNukeMoM⚓️MMN(Vet) on March 26, 2014 at 1:39pm: GMA - I think that would be fun if you did a roadtrip with your grandson! Think of the memories you both would have ;-)

Mine isn't anywhere near leaving for a carrier yet. He's still in NY - waiting for his prototype class to start. Once it starts it should be about another 6 months (as long as the reactor doesn't go down!). After that he will be done with schooling and then will head out to a carrier.

Comment by GMA of a Sonar Tech on March 26, 2014 at 1:34pm: B'sNukeMom...I just spoke with him last evening..it looks like he will be going to Norfolk the end of June or the 1st 2 weeks of July...he is currently looking for the friend to drive with him first to Indy to see his Dad and then on to Norfolk...if he doesn't find a friend I am contemplating driving with him and then fly home...and yes, I have read all about the USS Vella Gulf..thank you for checking and letting me know about the group...I will join it..when does you son leave?....also will he be on a carrier?

Comment by B'sNukeMoM⚓️MMN(Vet) on March 26, 2014 at 1:19pm: GMA - when does your grandson leave for Norfolk?

I also see that there is a group on here for the USS Vella Gulf. Make sure you join it (if you haven't already!).

Comment by GMA of a Sonar Tech on March 24, 2014 at 11:59pm: Our grandson just learned that he will be on the Valla-Gulf..

Very excited for him...it has been a long year & half...

Comment by Steph68 on March 24, 2014 at 11:38pm: My son is on the George HW Bush. I loved that article.

Comment by mrsb on March 24, 2014 at 10:08pm: That was really cool to see B'sNukeMom! Made me cry. :)

Comment by B'sNukeMoM⚓️MMN(Vet) on March 24, 2014 at 6:44pm: This is pretty awesome. Family members serving aboard carriers Truman and Bush enjoy rare meeting at sea.
