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 Erinaday (Ship 13 DIV 265) on August 27, 2011 at 9:43am: Captain's Cup day. While I wish all of the SR's luck, I really hope and cross my fingers that 282 kicks everybody's butt! :)

Comment by toogoldn713 on August 26, 2011 at 9:37pm: @ Dave's mom, think the guys go to BS next week

Comment by Dave's Mom on August 26, 2011 at 8:05pm: Has anyone gotten a call from anyone on ship 07 division 290? i'm patiently waiting on my son's call ans nothing yet.

Comment by Kimberly P on August 26, 2011 at 6:45pm: ShelMaq, I think he was saying all that went to battlestations passed. My Sr said that those who failed anything didn't go to battlestations with them.

Comment by Sandy's_sailor son on August 26, 2011 at 6:17pm: BreeBree31, Those that didn't pass are sent to the FIT program until they do. There is a group here on NFMs.

Comment by BreeBree31 on August 26, 2011 at 6:02pm: Well let me just say, I was talking to a 17 yr old but I did ask specifically if all passed and he said all but two because they couldn't swim. Again I state, I was talking to a 17yr old...lol

Comment by ShelMaq on August 26, 2011 at 5:57pm: my husband said they all passed, but maybe he misunderstood me and he just meant he passed when I asked if they all passed?

Comment by ShelMaq on August 26, 2011 at 5:54pm: I got my call too! My hubby 11/283 said they all passed?

Comment by BreeBree31 on August 26, 2011 at 5:40pm: Hi Ladies,

Just got the phone call from son, Div 283 and he said all passed except two. Iam so proud of him and he also told me has his orders, he's heading to San Diego, CA in October.
