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 Ann-Marie(Proud Mom of Nick) on March 2, 2011 at 7:27pm: Twogirl91 after what your husband just went through. I'd wear what he wants you to wear. Just my own opinion. :)

Comment by twogirl91 on March 2, 2011 at 7:24pm: Just asking for opinions, my husband wanted me to wear a red dress to PIR a really dressy one. So I got this red knee length dress that has a full skirt. It's strapless and I got a little black jacket to wear with it and I'm wearing knee high boots. And a black coat that is as long as my dress. Do you think that would be too dressy? Or should I wear it anyway because my husband wants me to?

Comment by diannep on March 2, 2011 at 7:03pm: Ladies, we are a bit confused right now on who does BattleStations tonight. Some in the PIR 3/4 group are claiming that one of their divisions goes tonight (we had thought they went last night). If that is the case, then 91 and 92 will not be going with them...they don't mix PIR groups with BattleStations. That would mean that 91 and 92 will go tomorrow with 93 and 94. Just not sure unless someone has updated info. If so, please post on the BattleStations discussion above. In the meantime, I suggest that 91 and 92 be ready for calls tomorrow just in case...but if not tomrorow, they should come on Friday.

Comment by TxLadyJane(ET Nuke Mom) on March 2, 2011 at 6:55pm: Ok got a letter from my son today, yea but said his date for Battle Stations change to 7 Mar, anyone else heard this for Div 917??

Comment by Carol(ship12 Div.091) on March 2, 2011 at 6:34pm: Ann-Marie you will look great in your aviator scarf. It is the thought that counts we are all going to be so teary-eyed we won't be able to see past our noses.

Comment by LivFutureSailor(Ship 12 Div 099) on March 2, 2011 at 5:38pm: im getting so excited for PIR! already have my outfit picked out for grad and all my clothes ready to be packed for the rest of the weekend! 8 days to go (not including today)!

Comment by Mayflower on March 2, 2011 at 4:57pm: I got another call, he sounded so serious I was worried since it was the middle of the morning. But it was about needing more information for his security clearance. He's going into Cryptology so will need something above the average I imagine. He was in "business" mode, so it was irresistible not to say things he couldn't respond to...but I did find out that he PASSED his Personal Fitness Test! So he's able to participate in Battlestations. Phew!

Comment by TxLadyJane(ET Nuke Mom) on March 2, 2011 at 4:28pm: YMM I actually got something that will complement what my SR will be wearing, I know strange right?

Comment by HonorHim on March 2, 2011 at 4:27pm: 9 days to go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Comment by YMM (Ship 12 Div 98) on March 2, 2011 at 4:24pm: It is really cute that we are all so excited we are discussing what we are going to wear. I have to figure out my outfit this weekend. I told my husband I wanted him to wear a suit. He reminded me that I had already said that THREE times. Do you think I'm getting a bit anxious?!
