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 Megs-Sailor Wife on April 19, 2011 at 1:36pm: *diannep-I know UGH is so what I am feeling right now. We just never know what is happening for sure until we get that call. If and as soon as he calls me I will let you guys know. tick tok tick tok

Comment by JennieO_Hunter's Mom on April 19, 2011 at 1:23pm: gratefulmom3.....I did see last night on FB that someone from 03/143 did receive "I'm a sailor"call. Hang tight...maybe your son was on watch...and you'll receive a call today :)

Comment by diannep on April 19, 2011 at 1:23pm: gratefulmom: If he had not passed BattleStations that first night (when his division went through--Thurs), he would go through again with another group. They pretty much 100 percent pass the 2nd time. I hope that he calls you soon....maybe today.... I know the waiting is hard, but as long as you know he had passed all of his tests before BattleStations, I think he is fine. I tried to look through the previous pages on here to see if anyone posted that all of 143 passed, but didn't find that.

Comment by gratefulmom on April 19, 2011 at 1:17pm: Thank you for the encouragement from all you ladies. My son's PIR is on 4/22/11 in 3 days and why no "I AM A SAILOR" call. I did receive a letter dated Saturday that he passed his Fit test. Me and waiting are starting to not be on the best of terms unlike Megs-sailor wife. My son is in Ship 3 Division 143 and if there are any moms that have heard from their sailor from this division could let me know any info i would be gratefull. Thank You

Comment by janlee on April 19, 2011 at 1:17pm: Cdanielle---hes probably waiting to call and give you ALL the good news at once..:)))

Comment by diannep on April 19, 2011 at 1:17pm: Oh boy, Megs. So maybe 923 went alone last night? UGH! I guess we shall see if the calls come in today for everyone....or not!

Comment by cclivingston on April 19, 2011 at 1:14pm: Danielle

Lonna and Megs...nervous right along with ya'! Hang in there! Your phone will be ringing soon!

Comment by Megs-Sailor Wife on April 19, 2011 at 12:49pm: *Ok ladies I just got a letter from my hubby. It was dated on Sunday. He said that BS was going to be tonight. Now I don't know what time he wrote this so I am not sure if it is still accurate info. They could have changed what was going to happen after he wrote this. I guess we will just have to wait and see if anyone gets a call. If no call today then we wait for tomorrow. Yeah waiting and I have this great relationship going. We seem to understand each other. Lol. :-)

*Betty Boo-thanks for the good advice. I prob do forget to breath :-)
