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."

They post this info in the discussions found on the left side of their page: http://www.facebook.com/media/set/fbx/?set=a.1118843610808.2019917....!/NavyRecruitTrainingCommand

I hope it works ;-)

Comment by djaltic on April 21, 2011 at 11:19am: How do you find info on the FB RTC page?

Comment by katiedid on April 21, 2011 at 11:00am: Hello Navy Moms.....My Daughter in law is still waiting on her form letter. Hopefully we will receive it today! My son arrived at boot camp on April 13th, I have just been wondering what he is doing now? Looking forward to Graduation already!

Comment by Lala Ribbon Queen PIR Ribbons on April 21, 2011 at 7:50am: yes eights, a high ASVAB score can also put them in the performing division. They don't get mail during "P" days and it is usually about a week or so after the division is formed before they can write letters or receive mail. They have to train a person to be the "mailman" a very well liked person lol. So it ends up being between 2 and 3 weeks before they get or receive mail.

Comment by SOOJKP on April 21, 2011 at 12:46am: Hi Kim T and Allyson my son is in the same div 195 and ship 11, the comments on the bottom of the letter has made my day and night, he still has a sense of humor which makes me happy. Can't wait to talk with him

Comment by eightsonthemove on April 20, 2011 at 11:27pm: Hi Lala! Thanks for the info! I know for a fact that my husband has NO performance experience, but he's going in with his Bachelor's degree & scored very high on the ASVAB, so I'm assuming that's why. I sent my first batch of mail out yesterday when I got his address from the recruiter :) I heard that it takes quite a while (a few weeks?) for them to start getting mail so I hope he gets some soon! I can't wait to start getting some from him (other than his form letter today - which still made me smile from ear to ear!).

Comment by Lala Ribbon Queen PIR Ribbons on April 20, 2011 at 11:07pm: eightsonthemove- the 930 division is a performing division. Your SR could be in band, choir, flag corp, drill team or working behind the scenes as a greeter or door holder. It is a great division to be in and such an honor to be chosen :-)

It is so good to see the form letters are starting to arrive. Start sending those letters as soon as you have the form letter and address. They live for mail call.
