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 Pearl Harbor MA on March 17, 2011 at 10:38pm: My sr said he was on week 2 day 5, week 3 starts tomorrow, weekends don't count

Comment by proud4son85 on March 17, 2011 at 10:38pm: Hi Odi, I dont know what you mean by scarves are we to wear one at the graduation? I would love to do that and blue would be perfect to match their dress blues. Have you received a letter this week?

Comment by proud4son85 on March 17, 2011 at 10:29pm: oh my goodness well i guess they will be in good shape. lol

son had 4 teeth pulled and im thinking the wisdon teeth. do you know what week they are on we are thinking they are ending third week. he took PFA and said he was close on passing it so next time he should get it. he passed swimming test too.

Comment by Odi_Ship09_Div140 on March 17, 2011 at 10:28pm: Do the other Mom's for ship 09 division 140 want to pick a color for scarves? Would blue work for you guys? I was thinking something bright, or the practical side of me says black as I would use it again??

Comment by amyndria on March 17, 2011 at 10:21pm: Same here, written many received 1. That one started out 'sorry I haven't written.' Like I said I wasn't expecting it anyways. He's so technology dependent. Mine too left 2/22/11. He mentioned he might be held back, but not if it was the division's fault. Nothing about RPOC yet, but he got his wisdom teeth out.

As far as the extra IT the do the 8 count things, or mountain climbers, or sharks. He says these are the worst as they are put on their abs and move their arms and legs off the ground like they are swimming for 'prolonged period of time.'

Comment by proud4son85 on March 17, 2011 at 10:14pm: Hi amyndria you saying the same thing my son was saying about his division. they cant march together either. LOL. I have written so many letters and he has only received one so far. He Left 2-22-11. Did he say if they have an RPOC?
