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 Laurel on June 5, 2010 at 6:46am: Congrats to all who have made it through the worst part of bc. Reading all of this makes me cry on one hand and worry on the other. No new news, no letters or phone calls but I'm praying for everyone to make it threw.

Comment by DeannaD-Bigpumpkin on June 5, 2010 at 2:37am: Ty'sMom_Ship11/Div216, If I am right the cross guard hold the sword. He will be right up front. So exciting.

Comment by I_love_Thomas on June 5, 2010 at 2:29am: Thank you. I can try to help if possible still

Comment by DeannaD-Bigpumpkin on June 5, 2010 at 2:27am: I_love_Thomas, It is the last week but if you hear from him in the next day or so he can see. If not Ty's Mom don't worry after they sit everyone they let the others waiting come in. Just save a seat.

Comment by JudyB. on June 5, 2010 at 12:43am: Moms, guess what?! Miss Katie T's Gf just called and informed me that she has set up with Wriggly Field to congratulate Tristan on their electrical commentary board for next Sundays game!! Does anybody know the correct name for this board?!

Comment by I_love_Thomas on June 5, 2010 at 12:08am: Can I somehow get my guy to write her name down as his guest? I am the only one on his list, and when he calls for the sailor call, I can tell him

Comment by Sallee_Ty'sMom on June 5, 2010 at 12:06am: Oh...wanted to ask another question ladies...my daughter who is 18 is attending as well...and Ty is only allowed 4 guests...what are the odds that she will make it in the PIR? I understand the chances are good..anyone know?

Comment by Sallee_Ty'sMom on June 5, 2010 at 12:03am: Correction...PIR is Friday, 6/11...oops...leaving on Thursday...too excited I guess..

Comment by Sallee_Ty'sMom on June 5, 2010 at 12:02am: Hi all...I received a letter from Ty today. He said it would probably be the last letter i would receive since PIR is Thursday. He sounded stressed but he said I would be able to pick him out of his division because he's the TALLEST...he said that he was going to be a "Crossguard" when they march during the PIR (wearing a orange vest)...does anyone know what a "Crossguard" is or how he achieved that?

Also..Mom/Wives...letters are sooo meaningful to them....he did say he was really gets inspired by the motivational letters and also he is really touched by how involved I am in his navy career...so THANK YOU for educating me on the NAVY way of life and for being here for me during this whole process. Navy4Moms is a wonderful group for support. Hugs to all..and congratulations!!

Comment by LMC -mom of 2 Sailors! on June 4, 2010 at 11:32pm: I think FML (family leave act covers going to the PIR but not certain. check with your sons recruiter and see if he knows anything about that.
