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 bttrcp61 on September 2, 2010 at 8:14pm: I agree...I was looking forward to seeing pictures of the PIR that we attended.

Comment by maussie64 on September 2, 2010 at 4:51pm: Received the Keel today. And you're right NavyNana, the pictures are generic. They had PIR pictures with sailors in their dress whites. I think the only pictures of S's actual division were in the back. Kind of disappointed.....

Comment by navynana on August 29, 2010 at 12:33am: Hi Ladies. Our book came via USPS. I don't have the phone # but the name was Jerrod at the Nex GL. on the RTC side I think. Many of the photos are generic and not DIV 164 specific. Div 163 is included. Good Luck tracking it down. Hope all is well with everyone.

Comment by lj1422 (Josh's mom) on August 27, 2010 at 10:25am: Ours came USPS..

Comment by navynana on August 25, 2010 at 12:30am: Hi Juli, Thanks for the update and glad tohear all is going well. We received the Keel last week (see my post Aug 18th). You should have since they were in the same division. Keep in touch, we miss you.

Comment by bttrcp61 on August 20, 2010 at 2:00am: it is a hard back and looks much like a high school year book only not as thick

Comment by maussie64 on August 19, 2010 at 11:52pm: Still waiting......
Is it hardbound or paperback?

Comment by bttrcp61 on August 19, 2010 at 11:43pm: we received the Keel today...finally!!

Comment by lj1422 (Josh's mom) on August 18, 2010 at 4:48pm: Recieved the Keel today....Memories!!!!! Navy for Moms hugs to you all....

Comment by navynana on August 18, 2010 at 12:29am: Greetings. Just wanted to pop in and let you know that we received the long awaited Yearbook or "Keel" as it is called. Brings it all back when we were on here worrying about our sailors. Now they're all on their ships! My best to all of you as we experience this next phase. Take Care.
