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 Laura (Ship 7 Div 355 PIR 11/5) on October 9, 2010 at 6:05pm: According to what he said he would be shoveling snow or whatever they needed him to do. No mention of coming home.

Comment by Tiffany(s11div362PIR11-5) on October 9, 2010 at 6:04pm: And if they r r they not aloud to come home??

Comment by Laura (Ship 7 Div 355 PIR 11/5) on October 9, 2010 at 6:04pm: I don't know about everyone, he just said that the A school was full for now.

Comment by Tiffany(s11div362PIR11-5) on October 9, 2010 at 6:03pm: So do u no if everyone that is that is on hold or did some get in and some didn't

Comment by Laura (Ship 7 Div 355 PIR 11/5) on October 9, 2010 at 6:01pm: Either FC or ET.

Comment by Tiffany(s11div362PIR11-5) on October 9, 2010 at 5:59pm: Laura what is his job??

Comment by Laura (Ship 7 Div 355 PIR 11/5) on October 9, 2010 at 5:56pm: Yes, originally he was grad and go, but was staying in GL. Last letter said he would be on hold for a month because A school was full. Rate that has special situations, what does that mean?

Comment by diannep on October 9, 2010 at 5:54pm: Laura: Did you say he is GradNGo to GL? If so, he can ask when he moves over there which would be right after PIR. I feel sure that he is allowed to have them, unless he is in a rate that has special situations. I will doublecheck with one of my Navy Mom friends who has a son there now and let you know what she says..

Comment by Laura (Ship 7 Div 355 PIR 11/5) on October 9, 2010 at 2:37pm: diannep, while he's on hold will he be able to have cell phone and computer with him or should we look into renting him a locker?
