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 June 12, 2011 at 7:54am: meryl: That is great news that he passed his PFA! Wheeww...that seems to be the major hurdle for many of them....now...on to BattleStations!

KC'sMom: Hang in there....he WILL get to Defense Language Institute but just a bit later than planned. Still praying for him...I know it's tough for you and Squeekerz with this being their normal PIR week...but remember...once a sailor, it doesn't matter HOW they got there! :-)

No, Joy. They are totally separated from their division when injured/sick/etc. They never go back to that one :-( When well, they will be put with another division at the same part of training that they were when separated from their original division. My son went through this too. He was asmoed for a week. So, no, they cannot "observe" BattleStations. It is sad because they become so close during bootcamp, but hopefully they traded phone numbers before they were asmoed so that once all are out and have cells again, they can get back in touch.

Ahhh, KC'sMom. So sad that your boy asked that question and got screamed at. Well, moving forward now...

Comment by diannep on June 12, 2011 at 7:46am: ...and, imajagtoo: 207 won not just one award...but two! Got it for the male division and also the motivational chant! So they must have been extra excited! Way to go 209 for winning the integrated division!

Comment by Joy125 (FC Mom) on June 12, 2011 at 7:43am: Divisions 207 and 209 won trophies imajagtoo! My daughter said 204 won third place, I believe there is more than 1 first place, second place, third place, separated by categories. I wish they would publish a list somewhere!
