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 nicole~a sailors girl(: on December 16, 2010 at 7:24pm: AlishaNicole - Yes, sometimes there are lines. Yes, there are alot of phones..but usually more kids than phones. The room isn't honestly all that big, at all. I've been in it. They're little phone booths and there's maybe 40 of them?

Comment by joansj proudGSM mom on December 16, 2010 at 7:21pm: Will do thanks for the info Jessica. I was wondering should I take him his cell phone at this time as well?

Comment by Penny_Nuke_MM2_NimitzNuke on December 16, 2010 at 7:20pm: Congrats, Joan !!! I can't wait to hear my son's voice as well.

Comment by AlishaNicole SHP11DIV54 on December 16, 2010 at 7:18pm: Is there usually a line to use the phones at bc? I'm dying to talk to my daughter!! I really hope she calls!!

Comment by nicole~a sailors girl(: on December 16, 2010 at 7:17pm: 057 & 058 may be brother divisions, so that would explain that.

This was my PIR experiance w. C:)

Comment by joansj proudGSM mom on December 16, 2010 at 7:13pm: Karen it was great to hear from our kids, the most wonderful thing in the world. My son told me he will also be grad & go. He told me he will have liberty with us for the entire weekend because he is staying in GL for A school. I am so excited and can't wait for next month. I am happy that he gets to stay with us for the entire weekend!

Comment by AlishaNicole SHP11DIV54 on December 16, 2010 at 7:10pm: Ok ladies, it looks like Div 53 and 54 are calling home today! Stay near your phones!!! Please share with us if you get a call! Thanks!

Comment by Penny_Nuke_MM2_NimitzNuke on December 16, 2010 at 6:58pm: Okay, so far the divisions receiving mail are 053, 054, 055, 056 and 910 ... is that correct?

Only two more not receiving mail yet and that is 057 and 058.

Comment by Karen Shp 11 Div 053 on December 16, 2010 at 6:57pm: I got my call from Richelle today at 4:15, she is so upbeat and had so much to say!!!! She talked and talked, heard the RDC's in the background yelling "10 MINUTES LEFT!!!". She said she eats 5 meals a day and is starting to feel stronger. She passed everything so far with 5.0. She is a Grad and Go and asked us to bring her cell phone and wait at the airport with her on Saturday, we can then give it it her for her trip to A School in Pensacola, FL. She still has her wisdom teeth, just had them cleaned yesterday, had to wear the sweat outfits for a long time without washing them (hope their deodorant held up)...She said she mailed a letter but it's not here yet..also she told me to keep writing, she received two of my letters and one card from my husband so far. I am so relieved, I had so many questions for her but she did most of the talking. I am so proud of our recruits.

Comment by joansj proudGSM mom on December 16, 2010 at 6:55pm: He had phone priviledge for an hour. I talked to him for 45 minutes then he got off to call his brother. He said they are working together better. He didn't say if they all had priviledges. They are receiving our letters. He said he received 6 of mine at one time and that he wrote several that I haven't received yet. He also said they are brothers and sisters with div 053.
