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."

I'm leaving home in just a few hours and will boarding a plan on my way to Milwaukee!!! Can't wait to meet everyone.. c u soon. SAFE travels to everyone!

Comment by DebBon / Ship7 Div 052 on January 19, 2011 at 12:49am: Well, Ladies: I never hear from my Sailor tonight, maybe tomorrow. I did hear that he made it though, so that is a relief. Apparently sick, went back to the ship and passed out from exhaustion.

Congratulations to everyone....Can't wait to meet everyone in 2 days.....

We can now say Sailors instead of Recruits or SR's :o}

Comment by diannep on January 19, 2011 at 12:33am: Congrats to all of the new sailors today! HOOYAH!

Comment by diannep on January 19, 2011 at 12:32am: When they are asmoed, they eventually are reconnected with another division. They will be put with a division that is at the same point of training that they were at when asmoed. My son was asmoed in week 3, so he rejoined another division a week later that was in week 3.

Comment by navygf02909 on January 18, 2011 at 11:41pm: oh yeah, when my SR SAILOR called, he said "wow, you answered quick" and I told him I knew he was calling, he asked how. I told him N4M and he was like "WOW, they are good!" :) Thanks to all
