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."

Comment by DadInValley (SHIP 07 DIV 056) on December 30, 2010 at 12:21pm: Got a letter yesterday...he's REALLY looking forward to A school. No word on the next phone call. Something about if they pass the next item then a phone call.

Comment by Fawn-Jordyn's Mom on December 30, 2010 at 11:14am: Deana- LOL! I did the exact same thing! She hasn't responded to that letter yet, though!

Comment by Deana (Ship 11, Div 053) on December 30, 2010 at 10:45am: I copied and sent that pic to my SR. I drew an arrow to the one I thought was her and asked for confirmation!! There is another view of this pic and I could see a hint of her glasses! I'm pretty sure the first girl to the right (in the front row) is my daughter!!!

Comment by diannep on December 30, 2010 at 8:48am: Aren't the NWUs (Navy Working Uniforms) pictured below great? This is what your recruits train in...and what many work in once stationed. My son loves his...says they are very comfortable (he is stationed).

Comment by AlishaNicole SHP11DIV54 on December 29, 2010 at 7:25pm: Does anyone see their SR? I could swear I see the back of my daughters head! I know that color and cut!!! Does anyone see a familiar person?

Comment by SherryYmom Ship 07 DIV 055 on December 29, 2010 at 7:02pm: Laura...we are getting the same feed back in DIV 55! We have only received one phone call also. I have read older entries for many Divisions that have PIR'd before us and it is the trend. My husband was in the Air Force and he said this is honestly a part of breaking down the individualism and building up the team bond. That Team bond will be a matter of life or death to our Sailors in the future. I was so bummed about all the bad news about caos in the Divisions until he gave me that reminder! =) It stills hurts and bothers me that we are not getting to hear from our SR's, but I at least don't feel like we are the worst kids on the block anymore. LOL! Keep praying!! God wouldn't lead our kiddos to a place where He would leave them. There is a plan in all of this caos! {{{HUGS}}}} to all!

Comment by bls23ship 02 div 910 on December 29, 2010 at 6:03pm: we received two letters today from my daughter and we have only received one phone call also. there was someone that made a comment about eating peanut butter, she asked us if eating alot of peanut butter was bad for her so she is getting the protein also. she said that her division doesn't have it together and that is why they haven't had alot of privledges, and also alot of IT. she also told me that she will have duty one day after PIR. i am not sure if anyone else has gotten word of that yet.

Comment by Laura (SHIP07 DIV056) on December 29, 2010 at 4:27pm: hi ladies is our div that bad that they have only called once

Comment by SANDY ship07div056 on December 29, 2010 at 3:57pm: Kac - I guess div 056 will come backed ripped!! Six pack abs and all. Maybe IT is not so bad! Hehehe!
