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 Terry (ship 12, div 096) on March 21, 2011 at 1:06am: Calmseas, there are 2 groups. The first is http://www.navyformoms.com/group/Aschoolsailors (Moms of "A" school Sailors) .

The second is http://www.navyformoms.com/group/askthesdc (Great Lakes A School Q&A).

You can find those in the "Groups" button if my links don't work. My son is there at A School in GL and is currently on hold. Meaning he has no class as they are either: A) full and don't have room for everyone or B) don't have enough people to start a class. At this time he doesn't know how long it will be before class starts for him. But, he's sick right now, and still not doing well, he's going back to see the doctor on Monday, so I don't know if he's keeping the facts straight or remembered it all since he's not feeling well.

Comment by Terry (ship 12, div 096) on March 21, 2011 at 12:59am: Ky's mom, you are in thoughts and prayers. I didn't want to post this with my other post, and then before I did, I got sidetracked and didn't get back till now.

Comment by calmseas on March 20, 2011 at 11:07pm: Is there a group or a place to ask questions about our sailors, and "A" School in GL? Just wondering if any other Mom's have questions about their Sailors "job" status or school status... I'm confused as usual, and need some answers... Thank you!

Comment by Redfly on March 20, 2011 at 7:56pm: I'm so sorry for your loss, Ky's Mom. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Comment by TxLadyJane(ET Nuke Mom) on March 19, 2011 at 5:26pm: Ky's my hearts and prayers are with you, lost my sister almost 2 years ago now (April 7) and it still hurts some days she was 36. I hope you find some peace and again you will be in my prayers.

Comment by Hunters_Mom_12/092_MAA on March 19, 2011 at 4:16pm: ky's mom, hoping time will heal and to hear of how you were treated by our Navy is just inspiring... Thank you for sharing in this extremely difficult time. Your a true Navy Mom

Comment by Terry (ship 12, div 096) on March 19, 2011 at 3:53pm: Updated info on ordering the dvd of 3/11/11 PIR.

If you didn't order one, call the Photo NEX. They will be able to email you the form that you can print out and mail in. Angie, who I spoke to initially, was very helpful. She said they can not accept info over the phone or by fax. She said that there are limited quantities of the dvd left. They are $29 which includes shipping. You can pay by either money order or credit card. Address of where to mail it is on the form.

So keeping my fingers crossed that they get my form before the dvds are all gone.

Thank you everyone for the help with the phone number on who to call, etc.
