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."

forN4M's Community Guidelines and OPSEC.

~OPSEC OPerational SECurity, is always of the utmost importance.

~N4M’s also has Community Guidelines just like any other social media.

~Please take the time to read the OPSEC and N4M’s Community Guidelines.

~A quick note here, from the N4M’s CG’s:

• Don’t Jeopardize the Safety of Our Sailors: Remember OPSEC (Operational Security) (Don’t Sink Ships With Loose Lips) This site and all content posted on it are viewable to everyone on the Internet. This doesn’t mean you can’t share things about your Sailor – but too many details can put Sailors in harm’s way. The following are examples of red flags and should not be shared within this community either by posting or sending via a Group message:

• Sailors’ last names. This includes your username if you share the same last name as your son or daughter.

Some Suggestions:

~If your last name is different from your Recruits it is still not recommended for you to use in your username for your own personal security. This is your option. It is also not a good idea to use an email address as your username for personal security reasons.

~First Names and pictures of your Recruit are allowed but remember, everyone can see it and someone can easily match them up with their "mom". So you might want to consider changing your profile picture to not include your Recruit at least for the duration of BC. Again, your option

~It is also a good idea to make your settings for your Profile Page "viewable only to your friends".

Comment by CO-TwinSalorsMom on May 19, 2013 at 7:29pm: Michelle. My heart hurts for you. Did he leave a message that you can listen to?

Comment by Abby on May 19, 2013 at 7:05pm: Thanks CO-twin and diannep. I have found the Navy Lodge website before, but I was looking on this site for something I had read previously. I believe my husband's uncle told them the situation, but he just booked it in his own name.

Comment by Michelle on May 19, 2013 at 7:01pm: I miss my husband call, it hurts soo bad I waited for his call all day yesterday and today. The moment I put my phone I miss his call. I miss him sooo much I can't wait another week without talking to him :_(

Comment by PattyC on May 19, 2013 at 6:55pm: A short call from my SR in DIV 236!! He sounded down :(

Comment by imomxfour x 3 Sailors on May 19, 2013 at 6:54pm: YAY Navywife2012!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My daughter was asking about a wife with first name that starts with a D and has a 2 yr old...she was asking if anyone's loved ones were on here and one guy said his wife was....let me know who fits this description!!! ;-)

Comment by Navywife2012 on May 19, 2013 at 6:43pm: Got my calllllllllllll I'm so darn happy right now!!!!

Comment by imomxfour x 3 Sailors on May 19, 2013 at 6:41pm: Div 235 is/was in the phone room!!!!!

Comment by CatMom509 on May 19, 2013 at 6:32pm: Hi All,

     "I guide you in the way of wisdom

      and lead you along straight paths"

                                     Proverbs 4:11

Comment by diannep on May 19, 2013 at 6:30pm: Yes, Turkeyswife; You do unless you are military yourself. The hotel is only for military w/ID, so it needs to be booked in your SR's name for anyone who doesn't have that. Make sure to tell them you are booking for Navy Graduation.

Comment by CO-TwinSalorsMom on May 19, 2013 at 6:29pm: I booked our rooms under our names, but told them it was for PIR 6-21 and they asked my SR's name. Search for navy lodge, then you have to pick a location, click or type in Great Lakes it will pop up a list click on GL, IL. Then call the 1800# listed on the page to make your res. if you still can't get it by tomorrow I will post the GL phone # for you then.
