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 navy nana on March 3, 2011 at 12:53pm: I will put the date on my posts and wish everyone would do that. I am reading posts that have been here for 3 weeks or more....I check every day but would like new info.

Comment by Nellz15 on March 3, 2011 at 12:51pm: got a letter, division 101 is suposed to be doing BS monday

Comment by nikosmom ( CVN 70, Seaman ) on March 3, 2011 at 12:27pm: just wanted to pass on some restaurant info for Chicago. if you like upscale Italian I highly recommend Spiaggia, or cafe Spiaggia ( more for lunch ) Spiaggia has one Michelin star, ( it's a foodie thing ). also a great place for lunch is at the Art Institue, Terzo Piano, you can walk up the bridge that crosses over from Millenium Park. Great Salads, fish, specials, desserts, wine!!! Enjoy!! Kathy

Comment by Carol(ship12 Div.091) on March 3, 2011 at 12:24pm: GBs, the only way I got any details...I wrote a questionnaire that all our SR had to do was check yes or no...I wasn't sure he would even answer it but he did and to my suprise he wrote a few notes of explanation on it . So maybe you will have to put your creative writing to good use! Pray we get word soon. We are so quiet on N4Ms this morning you can cut the veil of anxiety with a knife. LOL

Comment by Misdtb on March 3, 2011 at 12:19pm: Yea, 2 letters today. Ship 12 Div. 92. Said they did damage control firefighting and gas, everything was fun but uncomfortable. Did awesome on last and final PFA and they have Battlestation on Wed. and Thurs. So hopefully it is all over for them and we will be getting calls in a little while. Can't wait until next week this time will be in Chicago....

Comment by Redfly on March 3, 2011 at 12:08pm: Did anyone receive any calls yet?????

Comment by nikosmom ( CVN 70, Seaman ) on March 3, 2011 at 12:08pm: didn't sleep all night!!! way to excited!! I just want next Thursday to be here!!!!

Comment by AnthonysMom(Ship 12 Div 096) on March 3, 2011 at 12:00pm: I gotta letter yesterday!!! Woo Hoo!!! My password request must not have gotten to him by the time he wrote it, so I'm still waiting on that! He said his Div lost their phone privileges again, so that's why I didn't get a call last Sat. What the heck are they doing??? I'm also proud to say he's been promoted to an E-2~! WooHoo!!! He was like-Did I tell you already? Jeez...u gotta love these guys! He said to wish them all luck with the final PE, BS, and one other thing I forgot, but they're having a big week!!!

Comment by diannep on March 3, 2011 at 11:57am: If your divisions did go last night, calls should start coming in starting around 2 pm GL time (a little earlier possible) and would go on for quite some time. If they went, it most likely was 91-94 so the calls will take a while (into the evening). There were only about 4 ladies in 3/4 from Div 916 (the division they thought was going last night), so not sure if we will get posts from them since they are on their way to GL.

Sorry for the extra stress, ladies! Carol was right when she said in the Battlestations discussion that we can only get our info from you all who get it from your SRs ...and then if it is "changed up" on them...well...confusion!

Comment by paybacks398 on March 3, 2011 at 11:22am: Ship 12 div 092 sitting -waiting, waiting and waiting-hoping that they actually did do BS last night and are all done and everyone passed. But, if not, waiting has become a new hobby, so I guess I will wait some more. Praying for all the SR in the PIR 3/11.
