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 whitemountain on June 23, 2011 at 10:17am: SO happy for you navymom!

Comment by FireTeamLeaderWife aka FTLW on June 23, 2011 at 12:09am: Angie 09/239-I posted in the "DEP-leaving for Boot Camp in June" group for the ladies to make sure that they join their PIR groups. So, hopefully we will get some more of the 09/239 moms here.

In the meantime since you are the first, may I suggest that you go ahead and start the discussion for your SHIP/DIV.

Just go up to the Discussion Forum on this page and click "Add a Discussion" on the lower left corner of it. You can simply put SHIP09/DIV239 or add something catchy! Then just say pretty much what you said in your post!

Welcome!

Comment by NavyMom509 on June 22, 2011 at 9:48pm: Banner day today! I received a wonderful 26 minute call from my SR today. (03/235) I have call forwarding on my home phone to my cell and I was lucky to get the call while I was somewhere quiet. He sounded great, said he gained a couple of pounds and is doing well and actually enjoying much of it. He shared some wonderfully colorful acronyms they use in bootcamp to refer to every day things. The time flew, but it was so great to hear from him. He concurs.... MAIL IS GOLD ..... they love receiving letters. When I got home there was a letter in the mail as well.... double whammy!

Comment by BoosMom on June 22, 2011 at 6:22pm: noone has made a page for that group, but i am sure there are others here with SR'S in that group

Comment by BoosMom on June 22, 2011 at 6:21pm: Anigie, this is where they would hang out!

Comment by Angie 09/239 on June 22, 2011 at 6:11pm: Looking for others on 09/239, anybody out there?
My SR is in his third week and have not seen anyone on same ship and div. Here or on RTC FB page.
