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."

I am unable to log on to the web site listed in the appreciation letter sent to parents by new recruits. If I can't get logged on here, how do we get our parking passes for graduation. I realize I can't print it until 11 days prior, but I'm worried because I can't log on to the site. H E L P ....... Please.

I was unable to log on, on my home comp. but didn't have any trouble logging on at work or at my daughters it seems if you have an older comp. or slower comp. the web site won't load. when it came time to print the parking pass I just had my daughter open the page then e-mail it to me. when I went to open it in my e-mail it did still ask for my pass work but was able to print just fine from my home comp this way..
if all else fails go to the library..
