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 waterloomom on June 30, 2011 at 1:06pm: bskimber, I did not receive a friend request and I tried to invite you as a friend but could not for some reason. My daughter is in 12/238 and I would be happy to be friends please try again.

Comment by Paloma on June 30, 2011 at 10:32am: Thanks for sharing the web site, just ordered it.

Comment by whitemountain on June 30, 2011 at 10:22am: so...my SR's job is Ship Staff. Anyone have a clue what that means? Got little detail and trying to find out more.....

Comment by whitemountain on June 30, 2011 at 9:42am: Hi Everyone...see this link for free flag....

The link is www.mybluestarflag.com. It's free from this site.

There is an explanation of the flag on this site. Ordered mine a couple of weeks ago.

Comment by whitemountain on June 30, 2011 at 8:53am: Hi Josh'sMomCindy and bskimber..my daughter is also 11/238. I also got a call last week but I know she said about 40 people got their wisdom teeth pulled so I also wouldn't be worried. BUT, I know how much that call meant...wondering if you will get a call today as they were able to call last Thursday...I got mine about 4pm EST. Hope you hear soon! :)

Comment by bskimber on June 29, 2011 at 11:43pm: Hi Waterloomom,

I think I sent a friend request to you. My son is 11/238 also. No phone call yet :-( , what about you?

Comment by nicole~a sailors girl(: on June 29, 2011 at 2:48pm: JUST GOT A CALL:) 241 is at the phones!

Comment by diannep on June 29, 2011 at 1:49pm: Don't know if I had mentioned on this group or another one....but if you don't need to go into the RTC NEX to pay for pictures, etc....might be better to wait and go to the one outside of the base. Very close by, bigger, and wouldn't be quite so crowded. It's gets pretty crowded in the RTC NEX!

Comment by HM__Mom Ruth on June 29, 2011 at 9:59am: Facebook also publishes "random" pictures of recruits. I check all the time. Thought I saw my daughter once.

Comment by chadanddianedivision155 on June 29, 2011 at 6:09am: it was chilly the day my son graduated, in april in his dress blues and they had the rain coats and had the liners in them
