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 Nancy69 on March 3, 2010 at 11:23am: Ko Nona!!! Looking forward to it!! remember - call if you change your mind about Meet and Greet!!!

Comment by Nona on March 3, 2010 at 11:04am: flying out tomorrow too, Nancy! See you there!

Comment by Nancy69 on March 3, 2010 at 10:02am: first time navy mom- if a recruit is having a hard time with one component (swimming, physical fitness assessment, one part of inspection, etc- but generally doing well in other things). Then they will get additional opportunities to pass that one area. They have to pass before PIR - or they will be ASMO'd (put back in training). Lots of times the RDCs will take them to swim every morning or run every night until they can pass..
Hope that helps! ...Here's all hoping for the great call today! Flying out tomorrow!! :) :) :)
