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."

In conjunction with this period, Recruit Training Command will not receive any recruits during the period from 17 December 2010 through 2 January 2011. Two 96-hour liberty periods are authorized during the holiday leave period: 23-26 December 2010 and 30 December 2010 - 2 January 2011. Special liberty for military personnel and liberal leave for civilian personnel is authorized during these two periods.
