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 Pam from NH (Ship 11/Div 127) on April 1, 2011 at 5:33pm: Received a letter today (dated) March 27 that he is doing Battlestations next Friday. I think he means today (4/1) since PIR is next friday (4/8).Has anyone heard from Ship 11 Div. 127?

Comment by mumziepooh on April 1, 2011 at 5:21pm: Rags - I think I love your mom.

Comment by Debi (Ship 9 Div 126) on April 1, 2011 at 5:19pm: Congratulations to all of you!!! Lala - Just want to thank you for the ribbons, they look great! And Rags- your Mom is mean! But a clever April fools joke! My son's division goes Sunday night! Just keep praying, I can't believe they called so late, I would have thought you would have gotten your calls this morning!

Comment by ProudSailorWife1208 on April 1, 2011 at 5:17pm: Got the call from my Husband. He's officially a Sailor in the United States Navy. I couldn't be more proud.

Comment by terry268 on April 1, 2011 at 5:13pm: We just got our call WE HAVE A SAILOR

Comment by ntz4laa (HM Mom) on April 1, 2011 at 5:06pm: jim'scupcake ~ Yes, they get another chance to pass. From what I read passing is a 3 strikes thing, mess up 3 times and you don't pass. The good thing is you are given another chance. With the case of the divisions that are going through Monday night, I'm not sure when they go through again since our PIR is only scheduled through Monday. I don't know if they would have them go through on Thursday with the next PIR or what.

Comment by mumziepooh on April 1, 2011 at 4:41pm: I HAVE A SAILOR MAN! They got 3 Penants!

Comment by Dusty 1129MM on April 1, 2011 at 4:40pm: Hi emilee27 - I think you are friends with my sons girlfriend in 122.

I think you are right - it may be a while for us.
