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 diannep on October 13, 2010 at 10:49pm: Diana: I googled "PFA requirements for Navy" and a site came up, 2010 US Navy Physical Fitness Test Standards. The info you are looking for is in there.

Comment by firemansmom(S7/DIV357) on October 13, 2010 at 10:15pm: sunnydg...lol..I'm definately not very smart! FMF is Field Medic...cant remember the other 'F' !! Corpsman for the Marines...not 'if' they see combat but 'when'... couldn't talk him into just being a HM and maybe..o, i dont know, a nice safe nurse like his mom...lol

Comment by gkneemo-Alex'smom on October 13, 2010 at 9:35pm: Thanks Laura...Today is a bad day and for what reason I couldn't begin to say. Navy for Moms does make it easier.

Comment by Laura (Ship 7 Div 355 PIR 11/5) on October 13, 2010 at 9:24pm: Gkneemo, don't worry to much about him not being able to call. If he can he will purchase a phone card from their little store. We sent several phone cards and my son bought one.

Comment by gkneemo-Alex'smom on October 13, 2010 at 9:19pm: Thanks for the answers about Subs. I see some got calls from 364. I know Alex's phone card was used up the first call, which was last week-- He had to call several numbers to finally reach me. I just got another phone card out to him. Prayers out to Jose and all our SR's Thanks to all moms and others on Navy for Moms, it truly is helping me keep my sanity. I'm thinking 11/5 can't come soon enough. I think the not knowing is what is getting me down.

Comment by shinertxgal(ship 7 div 358) on October 13, 2010 at 9:19pm: Got another letter today. Josh said that they will have fire fighting next week. He said it is going good! Gas chamber is either this week or next. Couldn't tell from his letter if it was this week or next the way the sentence ran together lol
