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 Sallee_Ty'sMom on June 4, 2010 at 7:36pm: LMC...I'm so sorry to hear. When does he have the opportunity to do BS again? Does he wait another month?

Comment by JudyB. on June 4, 2010 at 7:25pm: Hi Kim - T explained it to me like this: NCO Gold is really for the CO & RCPO it is the results of ALL combined test scores for that division...so if a div net scores are the highest throughout the ships divisions the div is rewarded for working as a Team(were talking 68 individuals) this is a monumental task!! So not only are the divisions rewarded being recorded in The Hall of Fame...it really looks Good for the Commanding Officers!!

Comment by LMC -mom of 2 Sailors! on June 4, 2010 at 7:13pm: Well I know who the recruit isn't :(

Comment by Sealifedifferently-ship11/Div209 on June 4, 2010 at 6:42pm: Judy- I know my son mentioned that they were NCO gold but I didn't quite understand the whole thing because he was talking so fast and telling me everything about BS. I am so excited that BS is over... now I think I can relax a little and do homework and start packing.... It will be great to meet you.

Comment by Joyce - NavyMom Oceana on June 4, 2010 at 6:32pm: Hello ladies. I'm sharing a picture of todays graduation. My son, Wayne is on the right. Does anyone know who the recruit is on the left? My son is ship 06 div 930, he will be graduating next week with you all. One more week. Congrats to the new sailors, can't wait for my phone call.

Comment by Ian'sWife on June 4, 2010 at 5:44pm: Yes positive thinking...I will do that.

Comment by Sealifedifferently-ship11/Div209 on June 4, 2010 at 5:38pm: Ian'swife- My son did say that they are going to get 4 hours tomorrow and that is when they get to use the computers.... If he did not have time to call today he might call tomorrow... Keep thinking positive thoughts and so will I......

Comment by proudnavy_grandmother on June 4, 2010 at 5:37pm: What will all these sailors do next week if they have already passed BS?

Comment by Ian'sWife on June 4, 2010 at 5:35pm: Thank you everyone I will try and be patient. I had a big cry...I'm such a baby.

Comment by Tess (Ship 11, Div. 210) on June 4, 2010 at 5:33pm: It's easy for me to be happy and relieved but I have not forgotten those of you who are still anxious. I'm praying for you. I think the Navy is lucky to have every single one of your sons and daughters (husbands, wives) whether or not they pass the first time. We are family and appreciate every single member. We've all come such a long way no matter the outcome of BS. Congratulations on just getting this far!
