OPSEC REMINDER
Hey guys,


We've had quite a bit of OPSEC violation on the community recently. Just a reminder that you just can't post dates, times, travels, discuss particulars about weapons, locations, etc. here. There ARE people out there who join communities like this to gather information. Don't kid yourself.

Will it get someone killed? You don't know. The safest bet is just don't do it. If you're not sure if you should say it, err on the side of caution and just don't say it.


So here's a basic list of what not to say or do:

DON'T post specific dates your SO goes on deployment, leaves for R&R, redeploys, PCS's, or moves from one place to the next.

DON'T post specifics discussing weaponology, though that has not been an issue here, I'm just saying.

DON'T post where your husband is stationed if he is in a combat zone (i.e. what base he's at in Iraq or Afghanistan).

DON'T post the times your husband will be in transit from base to base in a combat zone, or travel times, period.

DO black out or otherwise blur nameplace, unit and branch patches if posting pictures.



Those are the main infarctions.



FROM HERE ON OUT I WILL DELETE WITHOUT WARNING ANY POST THAT VIOLATES OPSEC TERMS.

I'm tired of reminding people. Call me bitchy, I don't care. Read and follow the rules.



Thanks much!


If you have comments feel free to post them... if you have additional OPSEC violations you'd like to add to the list add them. I'll post this to the memories and link it in the community userinfo page, also.
