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 Lydia (For B - The Sea is Ours) on January 5, 2011 at 9:37am: Precious.... please share with us what Public Affairs told you in case we have others today that wind up with these questions??

Comment by PreciousMom (Ship 12 Div 038) on January 5, 2011 at 9:29am: Ok......thanks Lydia!! I got some answers by talking to Public Affairs. My phone will be in my bra!!!!!!!

Comment by Lydia (For B - The Sea is Ours) on January 5, 2011 at 9:14am: Pecious - If she did not participate in BS and or did not pass it... she will not PIR. They will roll her back to a different Division and she will go through it again. If she failed her PFA they might let her retry such as Julies boy. There is a possibility that she will not be in the PIR group now. You need to try to see if you can get some answers before you head to GL. Diannep or JessicaB -- do you have any insite into this situation???

Comment by BADma on January 5, 2011 at 9:08am: Good Morning All...finally decided to drag up outta bed...not like I could sleep anyways...

Comment by PreciousMom (Ship 12 Div 038) on January 5, 2011 at 8:09am: Not sure....but I'm assuming they get to watch the ceremony. But not participate in the marching in part.

Comment by ericsmom (ship12 div033) on January 5, 2011 at 7:37am: Does that mean she isnt graduating? Why bleachers??

Comment by PreciousMom (Ship 12 Div 038) on January 5, 2011 at 6:56am: So......I got the call last night,that my daughter too will be in the bleachers. I'm not sure of why....no explanations,but it probably had something to do with the swimming. I will still get to see her (I believe).!!!!!! All she said was "make sure I have the gate pass. I'm.....so sad,but at least I know.
