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 quiltblue on February 14, 2011 at 2:13pm: The Form Letter has four pages preprinted (front & back) on page two at the top, your SR (Seaman Recruit) will have listed his/her Ship and Div and their new address. Towards the bottom should have your graduation date PIR (Pass In Review). Page three will list the four people they would like to have at PIR. If those names are incorrect, you must get them corrected before you arrive! Only your SR can change who is invited. Bottom of Page four will be a short message from your SR. That's all! READ those things first, relax, then read all the printed information!

Comment by nursemom (Lisa) on February 14, 2011 at 12:46pm: diannep, yes you are correct, I got the information by calling Recruiter this morning. Still waiting on form letter. Just got weeks worth of letters and V'tines card out (very plain and not to draw attention).

Comment by janlee on February 14, 2011 at 12:34pm: Here is the link to the Command center...there is good info on there...just go into the pages.

Comment by janlee on February 14, 2011 at 12:32pm: GL stands for Great Lakes..it is where the Recruit Training Command (RTC) is located.

Do you want o find info on Great Lakes or the Traini?g Command Center

Comment by texasmom Ship 11 Div 179 on February 14, 2011 at 12:25pm: Could someone tell me what GL stands for and wherer that website is? Thank you.

Comment by diannep on February 14, 2011 at 12:24pm: Hi, the former "potsie!" (janlee) !!! I think that nursemom has just received the box, not the form letter. Thinking she got the address from the recruiter.
