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 bev2010 on October 19, 2010 at 7:36pm: Can someone help me? My son is div 358. I just got my second phone call and really don't understand about the battle station thing. He's says he'll be going across the street first for a little while for an A school, then to his real A school. He will be a sonar tech. I know when he graduates and have made all reservations. I don't know about the flags, either.

Comment by MyHrtBlongs2ASubmariner on October 19, 2010 at 7:20pm: Corey called!!!! OMG!!! He made Honor Grad!!!!!! He said he does battlestations on the 28th which is my moms birthday and that he will call me on the 29th!! I am so proud of my husband!!!!! 29th!! I am so proud of my husband!!!!!

Comment by Tiffany(s11div362PIR11-5) on October 19, 2010 at 7:12pm: they do more then 2 divisions at a time?

Comment by diannep on October 19, 2010 at 6:54pm: Ladies, until Lynne comes back, I have started a BattleStations schedule in the discussions up top. So far, we only know Thurs Oct 28th. Please ask your recruits and post or message Lynne (or me) when you have more dates.

Comment by diannep on October 19, 2010 at 6:50pm: Ok, so that means that 355, 356, 357, and 358 are going through BattleStations on Thurs, Oct 28th! YAH!

Comment by shinertxgal(ship 7 div 358) on October 19, 2010 at 6:04pm: He said they have Battlestations 21 on the 28th and was really excited about it, and pictures tomorrow. He was worried about his pictures because he did no have his debit card or checks yet from me. I sent them next day last Thursday and they did recieve it, I guess they just take a while to process the mail once it is there. I am still smiling:-)

Comment by nicole~a sailors girl(: on October 19, 2010 at 5:36pm: logans mom - don't assume they didn't like your questionaire or don't want you to know things...they're always really tired and scrunched for time..and half the time..we know MORE than they do about what's going on..they don't really tell them much besides things that will happen the next day or whatever. just hang tight(:
