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 Hunters_Mom_12/092_MAA on March 3, 2011 at 5:18pm: yeah, Carol ~ I deleted the phone whining post! Got the call that wiped that minor nightmare way. Thank you for the support. It helped just to vent, and vent....

So happy and now excited for you all to get yours! The no calls, letters and Mom neglect were because he was studying and doing his VERY best. Hard to deal with while in the midst, yet worth it NOW. Just like labor, he was 10 lbs & and when you see me it's a wonder how on earth? LOL

Comment by twogirl91 on March 3, 2011 at 5:06pm: I'm soooo happy!!! My Sailor just called! 45 minutes! He sounded so tired, he said it hadn't really sunk in that he had made it and he only has a week left. I'm so so proud of him!

Comment by soliz53 on March 3, 2011 at 5:02pm: Got the call 091

Comment by lorletta (ship 12 div 92) on March 3, 2011 at 4:51pm: He's a Sailor! I got the call and I'm at Disney World. Doesn't get any better than that!

Comment by Carol(ship12 Div.091) on March 3, 2011 at 4:50pm: Hunter's mom, I am so sorry you had to endure these anxious moments. From all that I have heard this morning Div. 091 and 092 have passed. I pray you don't miss your call. There are a few postings but not many yet. There are a lot of guys trying to scramble to the phones. Stay positive. I think our divisions have been doing very well from what I have read.

Comment by Hunters_Mom_12/092_MAA on March 3, 2011 at 4:48pm: Just talked to my SR - He said the Divsion scored high and did VERY well, it was easy and he can't wait to get to graduation and see me! Cloud nine here!!!! He told me of his friends and that he is now E2? Lets hear from 091/092 people/ Your calls are coming! HooYah!!!
