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."

Hi I am new here and was hoping to interact with others. My son left 2/7/11. I still have not spoke to him. I am praying he is ok and adjusting to bootcamp.

I am really sad right now.  I am really hoping that is not the case.  I am so glad I bought a webcam.  Damn, now I am going to have to spend the entire weekend with the Ex husband and Ex brother n law.  Too expensive to change flights.

Comment by sandy (ship 9 DIV. 126 ) PIR 4/8 on April 2, 2011 at 8:19pm
my daughter said the same thing... and she is going to San Diago
Comment by MamaMia on April 2, 2011 at 8:18pm

oh, nursemom, I hope that's not true! 

 

Comment by nursemom (Lisa) on April 2, 2011 at 8:16pm

My son mentioned that Corpsman going to San Antonio might not get to spend time with us on Friday.  They might be shipping out on Friday.  They will get official orders on Monday.  Fingers crossed this is not true. It was so disappointing that we did not have the entire weekend. Comprimised on Saturday at airport but will be hard to comprimise with only seeing him for a few moments on Friday.

Comment by Jajajo on April 2, 2011 at 8:08pm
 According to what people are posting their Sailors are able to use the computer and make phone calls after BS.  My daughter used the computer and got to make phone calls today.  Her division finished battlestations yesterday, captains cup today.  All the modern technology we had to connect with our girls and boys before BC is coming back...YAAYY! :)
