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 15, 2011 at 2:22pm: Not sure if they will have their trenchcoats though...that is what they are carrying here.

HOOYAH! T minus 43.5 hours until you SEE them!

Comment by diannep on June 15, 2011 at 2:20pm: Just remember....this is what you see in less than 2 days!

Comment by meryl (ship 09 division 208) on June 15, 2011 at 1:56pm: I'm in agreement with pianomom! We do love you sweet ladies.

Comment by pianomom1 (ship 11/div 203) on June 15, 2011 at 12:46pm: we love you, KC'smom and Squeekerz!

Comment by KC'smom on June 15, 2011 at 11:45am: Oh, Lord. I have a picture of my son for my profile. But, I don't use his real name and he doesnt have the same last name as me, so I haven't violated any security issues I don't think? I don't know how any of the RDC's can recognize them from our pictures anyway. I think they all look alike with no hair.

By the way, I would be in my car right now making my 15 hour treck to Great Lakes. But, here I am..... oh well. At least I have squeekerz to feel my pain.

Congrats to all your SR's. Have fun in the windy city!! Tell Oprah I said hello.

Comment by Sunnyb on June 15, 2011 at 11:22am: tysmom.. he didn't say they were looking for anything specific. He didn't think it was a very big deal, he said it was just another thing for them to ride them about. But I told him I never wrote either of our first names let alone our last names, so I couldn't think we had done anything wrong. All he had to go by was his picture..hmm Unless he was talking about the facebook pg. but I didn't post much on there, just a few questions if I was confused.

Whelp.. good lesson for us..!! never know who's lookin.. ~

Comment by tysmom on June 15, 2011 at 9:10am: What does a SR do (or not do) to fail BS? An example?

My phone is charging!

The RDCs would be looking for ? on this site...breeches of conduct??? Names????

Comment by diannep on June 15, 2011 at 8:09am: Sunny: Phlewwww......so crazy about the pushups. But look at the positive...he is going to be in tremendous shape with lots of upper body strength!

Comment by diannep on June 15, 2011 at 8:07am: Yes, Joy. The SRs who didn't pass would have gone again either last night or will tonight. I was told that sometimes they are allowed to sleep in the day and go that night again...but I thought they waited the 24 hours to give them a good night of sleep. Either way, they will go through again and should pass.

Comment by Joy125 (FC Mom) on June 15, 2011 at 6:37am: Sunnyb, my daughter said BS started off easy.....for the first 4 hours she was thinking "we got this" but said it rapidly went down hill from there! But they got through it, she says one or two recruits didn't succeed, however. I wonder what happens with them, will they do BS again with another group and still participate in PIR? I hope so. Praying for them and the ones currently in or about to begin BS.
