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 jim'scupcake on April 3, 2011 at 10:59pm: TexasMom...how is he doing? I hope things are looking good at this point. Our thoughts are still with you guys.

Comment by texasmom Ship 11 Div 179 on April 3, 2011 at 10:45pm: Thank you for the update Jajajo, Have you heard how they did? I would be interested, so I can let my SR know. I think he would be excited to hear. I received the Tshirt from the division 124 of the flag that they will have at PIR. Has anyone else seen it. I thought that my SR would love to see the finishing product since he was there to see the begainning of it.

Comment by Jajajo on April 3, 2011 at 10:34pm: Division 124 went through battle stations Thursday night Friday morning.

Comment by texasmom Ship 11 Div 179 on April 3, 2011 at 10:31pm: Good evening to all that will be graduating on 4/8/2011, I have been reading through all the e-mails this evening. I don't get to read often and I am trying to catch up. I talked with my son yesterday and he thought that some of his old Div 124 did battlestation on Friday. Does anyone know? I am so excited for all of you, I know some of you better than others but, I feel that we are all connected in such a special way. I will be praying for all your SR's, this evening that all will go well and that they receive that extra energy that they will need. I will also be praying that you all will get rest this evening. I will be reading tomorrow for post to hear the "great news."

Comment by Jajajo on April 3, 2011 at 10:10pm: For sure JessicaB all the recruits hardwork desire and motivation over the last 7 weeks will be proven and shown with their final test. They all should be so proud!

Comment by Ladybug<3 on April 3, 2011 at 9:53pm: More good luck to all going through BattleStations tonight!! wow, can't believe it is actually here!! and a little extra love going out to my SR <3 I can't wait to hear from him tomorrow!!!
