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."

One month before boot camp
Hello,
My name is Nina and my son will ship off to boot camp on July 23. I am new to the site. I remember the first time I briefly looked at the site, there was an article about preparations one month before. I can't find it the article now. Can someone please let me know how to find it? Thank you!

Welcome 2nina and Welcome to your Son. Wishing the best to your Son. I will post some sites that maybe you and him can read together, this is regards to the New Navy Standards. This must be passed in order to move on with BC. I'm sure he is ready and fit to go. Wishing him the Best!

My son left for Naval training on July 24th. He is in Division 366, ship 14. Has your son/daughter been calling and sending letters? Do you know how to look at their division?
Ant information would be helpful.
Thanks
