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."

Sorry to sound dumb (I am new to this), but I have noticed Nancy W. referring to her DS.  What does DS stand for?

Comment by jamielss on December 29, 2014 at 2:21pm

I prepared a very special breakfast for my DS. So happy he is with us this Christmas. I'm so thankful. Everyone have a bless Christmas.

Merry Christmas to all! The President of the United States made phone calls today to random service personnel deployed overseas. An AO1 in my son's squadron was the recipient of one of those phone calls. Christmas greetings from the President, that's cool!

Just want to wish you all Merry Christmas! I hope if your not with your children, that get to hear from them. For those that cannot hear from your children know they are thinking of you. Peace to the world!
