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 DenverNavyMom on October 14, 2015 at 10:03am: Yes Jillbug. They have to wait till enough people get there to que up a class

Comment by Jillibug5 on October 14, 2015 at 9:35am: Steph, my daughter got there on the 3rd of October, and doesn't start A-school till 16 November.... I wonder why they're waiting so long to start?? Do they have to wait till enough students show up? Three others shipped with my daughter at the same time..

Comment by Steph Proud AG Mom on October 14, 2015 at 9:19am: Hi Everyone.. My Son finally started A-School yesterday. He's been there since 9/5. Others that flew down with him, started a week earlier. How is everyone doing?

Comment by Proud AG Mama on October 5, 2015 at 6:28pm: Welcome Jillibug5! My sailor graduated a year ago from AG A School in Biloxi. There are two AG FaceBook pages. Navy AG's and Aerographers Mate. Let me know if you have trouble finding them. It is tough to find things about Biloxi Navy because it is an Air Force base. Actually, my niece went there for Air Force. Let me know if you have any questions I can help you with. Again, welcome to the AG family!

Comment by Jillibug5 on October 5, 2015 at 3:30pm: Hello! Im looking for a facebook page as well, my daughter just got to Biloxi this past Saturday for AG school. Still waiting to find out when her classes will start. Has anyone found the facebook page, or anything about the school on line?? I cant find that either... Thank you!!!

Comment by ssm on September 27, 2015 at 6:37pm: Thank you!

Comment by Proud AG Mama on September 27, 2015 at 5:43pm: There are 2 AG pages on FB. None that I have found though specifically for AG's in Biloxi. Navy AG's and Aerographer's Mate are the two FB pages.

Comment by ssm on September 27, 2015 at 5:21pm: Is there a Facebook page for the AG's in Biloxi?

Comment by ssm on September 27, 2015 at 4:08pm: My son just arrived in Biloxi last night after graduating this past Friday. I guess he is with your child-Steph! My son: ship 11 div. 318.
