Operations Security



OPSEC ON THE FORUM!!

Service Members and their families must be aware of their personal responsibility in securing operational information. Operational Security or "OPSEC" is the most important threat to the safety of your service member. Casual conversations about sensitive information or speculation about operational matters in public venues can be exploited. Do not discuss future or returning operations, missions, and destinations or any subsequent duty assignments. The identity of units planned for deployments is confidential until an official announcement of the deployment is made (ie: Dates and times of deployments or conducting exercises). Any post that violates ANY of the OPSEC rules will be edited or deleted depending on the extent of the information. This is a public forum and is also read by the enemy.

Operational Security is Everyone’s Responsibility!!!
