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 Lala Ribbon Queen PIR Ribbons on December 22, 2011 at 2:06pm: Good afternoon everyone, it seems that most of the pages are pretty quiet today. I guess everyone is busy shopping and baking lol. I am making goodies today, pecan pralines, peppermint bark, and chocolate pretzels are all done, next fudge and Christmas cookies. And later more last minute shopping. My 18 yr old son is very hard to buy for. He is planning on joining the Navy and he says he doesn't need anything, I am stumped on what to get him and I am running out of time ugggg, I am pretty sure he doesn't want a Navy themed purse lol or one with ducks or frogs :-) Guys are so hard to buy for. I am also stumped on what to get my son-in-law who is in the Navy (married to my Sailor/daughter) and all the gifts for him are really for the both of them. Any ideas?

Comment by FireTeamLeaderWife aka FTLW on December 22, 2011 at 1:56pm: Good Morning Group!

Comment by diannep on December 22, 2011 at 10:09am: Good Morning, ladies.

Remember, for those making PIR plans...if you aren't driving and don't want to rent a car, consider hiring SARGE to provide your transportation. For the entire weekend! Great rates and a very informative guy. He also holds a MeetNGreet the night before PIR in the area of the Springhill Suites, Residence Inn, and Courtyard Inn (Walmart shopping center area). His number is:

847-212-0246

Feel free to call or text him for info!

Comment by Oceans3 on December 22, 2011 at 9:58am: Today the countdown goes down to the 40"s, getting closer, slowly, but surely! :)

Comment by FireTeamLeaderWife aka FTLW on December 22, 2011 at 1:34am: Sorry I was away today...just trying to catch up...Hope everyone had a great day!

Comment by Arwen on December 21, 2011 at 8:51pm: It could take up to a month. Remember, the Navy is on holiday standdown, they're working with skeleton crews. Only RTC is fully staffed, and even that is down to only what is necessary to keep the training pipeline moving.

Comment by DarcieR (Ship 11 Div 62) on December 21, 2011 at 8:31pm: Still nothing.. when should I start to get worried about not receiving an invite or the paperwork since we are married?

Comment by Arwen on December 21, 2011 at 7:29pm: Happy Solstice to everyone! May your winter be bright with the love of family and friends.
