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 diannep on January 24, 2011 at 9:55pm: Ok, Audra. So I can't count even on my fingers!!!.....gvnavydad is right...7 divisions, not 6! Still a small group. My son't had 8 divisions, I think,....all got in.

Comment by SherryYmom Ship 07 DIV 055 on January 24, 2011 at 9:54pm: Do you think that if they failed they would have called?? They say that on other tests if they fail they get to call home. I am sick worried!!!

Comment by Karen Shp 11 Div 053 on January 24, 2011 at 9:52pm: Congrats on your new Sailors. IF they didn't call yet, they are probably enjoying their new freedom. She said their divs had a pizza party from Pizza Hut tonight. She called my husband tonight while I was out! :(

Comment by SANDY ship07div056 on January 24, 2011 at 9:45pm: Division 55 - I'm so sorry for your misery. I can honestly say I know how you feel. Take the time to write down some questions, lots of them. No need to tell you to be ready, because I know you've been ready - for days! I'm praying the calls come soon. Thanks for listening to me wine all day, I thought I was at the end of my rope. The cell phone was all over the place, in the bra too and he called the office number - Luv you guys!!!

Comment by gvnavydad-ship011div057 on January 24, 2011 at 9:43pm: Audra...there are only 7 divisions, a lot of times they have 13. You'll be fine.

Comment by diannep on January 24, 2011 at 9:42pm: Yes, I do, Audra. Make sure you are with his group of 4 though. Have ID. There are only 6 divisions in this group...the largest I have seen is 14. So see? This is little! Lots of space in there!

Comment by Audra (Ship07Div056) PIR 1/28/11 on January 24, 2011 at 9:40pm: yes thank you diane, I'm still nervous of not getting in. :( you think it'll be that easy?

Comment by Marchel_ship11/div053 on January 24, 2011 at 9:40pm: My son called and we got to talk for about 30 minutes, nice! He said 53 and 54 were calling and he wasn’t sure about the battlestation divisions. They had pizza - he said 4 pieces of pizza, 4 wings, glass of milk and all in 10 minutes! Then he burped, apologized and said when you eat fast you can’t help it! I ask him to ask around the room if anyone was there from 55 or 56 and he said no, not yet. He said they would probably come after they were done. Sorry I couldn’t get much more out of him- he did reassure me - he said “they’ll all do good mom, it’s easy” :). Praying for “Sailor” calls!

Comment by joyceann on January 24, 2011 at 9:36pm: What a horrible waste of time on Friday and Monday!!! Tomorrow is my last day at home as we are leaving on Wednesday. Not getting a whole lot accomplished outside the home! All I can say is WTH?????? Not fair!

Comment by gvnavydad-ship011div057 on January 24, 2011 at 9:33pm: One thing is for sure 55, when you finally get your call...you really need to post it here before you talk to your son. Inquiring minds need to know!
