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 trashline27 on May 31, 2010 at 9:09pm: Sophia - will say a special prayer for your recruit tonight...I see a few peope talking about Battlestations for 213 and that 213 and 214 work together...is the Battlestations set for this Wednesday or next? I know we are almost there but I too am getting very anxious

Comment by Sophia on May 31, 2010 at 8:45pm: I just got a phone call, but he isn't feeling well and is really stressed about the physical test tomorrow. If he gets held back, then I won't be able to go to graduation since I will be too far along in my pregnancy. I know he is strong and will do great!! So I guess I'm just hoping he does well.

Comment by ses_monroe on May 31, 2010 at 7:15pm: hey everyone. i hope you're all getting as excited as me. got a phone call on thursday. and letters wednesday and friday. just praying from now until wednesday that battlestations go as smooth as poosible. i know our men and women will do fantastic.

Comment by Tess (Ship 11, Div. 210) on May 31, 2010 at 5:29pm: Hi Charles' Mom: I'm so glad that your son and mine know each other and know that we are united in our support for them! Thanks for letting me know. Yes, he says that their division is doing very well (flags etc) but that it's a team effort and so the division is only as strong as it's weakest link. They team up for battle stations and let's hope and pray that our boys get on a strong and motivated team. I'm counting on it. Will be there on June 10th. Have a room at Ramada Inn and will be watching for you, Olga and all the other great moms and family on this site. Stay strong. We are on the last stretch! Tess

Does anyone know what's the least expensive way to get from O'Hare to Great Lakes?

Comment by Krystal(Trevor'swife) on May 31, 2010 at 1:22pm: We will be on a plane the morning of the 10th so I hope we dont miss the call after Battlestations! That sucks that they have to stay awake for 48 hours...now he's going to be exhausted during liberty!!

Comment by Anniebug57 on May 31, 2010 at 10:19am: Patti: It was great to speak with you as well!! I made it to my hotel with my poochies! The name of Tim's best friend is Kel Parsley - not his girlfriend. They have known each other for years and are like brothers. Tim doens't have a girlfriend but hoping for one in every port! We laughed when he said that....anyway, we will speak again before next week. I hope to get a phone call this week with some insight on graduation, battle stations, etc. If I hear anything I will give you a call - promise you'll do the same! Enjoy the day!!

Comment by Charles' Mom Ship 11 Div 210 on May 30, 2010 at 11:57pm: Hi everyone...my son called me today....yeah......I was so happy. He sounded real good; said they won every flag so far in all their competitions. He also said that Battle Station 21 is on Wednesday the 9th. they will have to stay awake for 48 hours.

Tess - Charles said he met your son and thinks he is real cool. I am glad they all are camerads and look out for each other. I pray that they all do well this week and next week. Good luck to all recruits in mastering all their tasks and challenges. good night everybody. I wish for all to have a peaceful and productive week.....
