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 Linda on April 30, 2011 at 9:53am: My son's recruiter gave me call the other day to give me his address...He mentioned that I should send a book of stamps...so I did that's cool right?

Comment by dorielee(Ship14Div313) on April 30, 2011 at 9:18am: i love the countdown clock! can't wait to go to GL for PIR 06/17/11

Comment by diannep on April 29, 2011 at 7:53pm: RWG: Could have been that they did allow them to write on Easter. And it is up to the RDCs when they can write also...some allow it earlier than others. They have to get the SR handling the mail trained as well. Glad you got the letter!

Comment by Mommabee2 on April 29, 2011 at 5:57pm: MamaCindy--my son is in ship 09, Div 205 too--only received his box of clothes so far--nothing else.

Comment by Mommabee2 on April 29, 2011 at 5:56pm: JessicaB-sailor Mom--how do I add the clock?

Comment by MamaCindy (MMW TM) on April 29, 2011 at 4:33pm: Is anyone's son in DIV 205 on Ship 09? That's the info I got from his recruiter on Tuesday, but still have not received the form letter. I see other DIV #'s, but not 205.

Comment by RWG (ship 09, div. 206) on April 29, 2011 at 4:28pm: Diannep,

You brought up a good point about the SRs not getting to write for the first 2 weeks. I wonder why my son was able to write. I was surprised to get the letter. Maybe they let the SRs write letters on Easter sunday.

Comment by diannep on April 29, 2011 at 2:46pm: Mommabee2: Can you add Jessica's division info below to the title of this group---

TG31: 9 Div (203-210, 931)

Makes it easier for others to find the group and also easier for me when doing the BattleStations schedule. Thanks!

Comment by diannep on April 29, 2011 at 2:43pm: Be sure to make note of the name/phone number "Odi" posted below re: Sarge at PIR. We have heard rave reviews on Sarge...for those needing transporation from airports/to airports, and around GL/to PIR.

Comment by diannep on April 29, 2011 at 2:41pm: Casey'smom: They usually can't write for the first 2 weeks or so there...so hopefully this Sunday, he will be writing you a letter since that is "close" to 2 weeks!

Ladies, they also "hold" the mail from the SRs for the first 2 weeks.
