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 Lynne on November 12, 2010 at 1:47am: good job Bradensgirl...but ummm your name is still Braden's girl...so the RDC in DIV 16 are going to look for that first name...so think about changing that name too...I am not picking on you...I am picking on everyone...I learned today what I am harping about is called PERSEC or personal security. You all are using your recruits names in your posts really easily and I just want you to consider carefully the consequences of that for your recruit...now I am done...enough said!!

Comment by Sherri_M on November 11, 2010 at 10:54pm: melh...how many pages are there supposed to be??? He said he sent me the only one he got..it was blue? I'll call tomorrow--PA hopefully, I will still be able to get this taken care of for him! Thanks for the fax number. kinda worried now though if there's another form....
Emily...isn't it great that our div is doing so well!! Michael said they are a great group of guys and work very well together..he's thrilled to be part of such a special group of recruits! I also hate that Nate is being reclassified..but I hope that whatever he (and you) choose suits him well and that he'll be happy doing it!

Comment by diannep on November 11, 2010 at 10:10pm: I bet he is being bussed then. Some of the most special moments are spent at the airport with all of the sailors getting ready to board flights. I hope this works out for you! I missed it with mine...he was GradNGo but I wasn't very educated then with this site and didn't know that was an option. :-(

Comment by tremontmom on November 11, 2010 at 10:01pm: diannep...he just said he had to be there at 4:30...that would be so nice if we could all hang out together...will def. make getting up that early worth it!
