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 nani on September 8, 2017 at 6:46pm: YAY!!!! Ok trumpetmom17 that gives me hope that mine is at least on it's way! I just want to send my letters :(

Comment by trumpetmom17 on September 8, 2017 at 6:28pm: Oh and PIR of 10/27/17 :)

Comment by trumpetmom17 on September 8, 2017 at 6:04pm: FINALLY!! Ship 2, Division 951! And believe it or not, I dreamt that 5 nights ago!!!

Comment by trumpetmom17 on September 8, 2017 at 2:54pm: I made my reservations for the original PIR date since there is no fee to cancel or change them. I'm praying when I get home there is a letter for me. I might just break down crying if there isn't.

Comment by nani on September 8, 2017 at 2:51pm: I haven't made a reservation yet. I'm hoping to do so for the 26th-29th. Maybe i'll just go ahead and do that today. Usually rooms can be cancelled if needed.

Comment by Leslie on September 8, 2017 at 2:48pm: Didn't come today. Don't know whether I should make reservations anyway. Have you made hotel reservations? For which day? 10/27?

Comment by nani on September 8, 2017 at 2:19pm: STILL NOTHING FOR ME! Anybody getting form letters yet from our MU recruits?

Comment by Leslie on September 7, 2017 at 4:36pm: Nothing in my mail today . . .

Comment by nani on September 7, 2017 at 4:02pm: trumpetmom17 same here! :( Nothing yet for me. Hoping for tomorrow....

Comment by trumpetmom17 on September 7, 2017 at 4:00pm: I have not been home yet today to check, but so far no. And it's killing me not to be able to send him mail. I just want his address!! :)
