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 May 22, 2010 at 10:05am: Rhonda, They are not allowed anything but letters. Pictures yes but don't write on the envelope that there are pictures enclosed like I did or they will be singled out. Goodies will have to wait until after bc.

Comment by JudyB. on May 21, 2010 at 12:20pm: Super Kim..My friend from high school just finished her masters( such a filling of achievement) kudos to you for going for your dreams.

Comment by Sealifedifferently-ship11/Div209 on May 21, 2010 at 11:44am: No I did not see it.... I am over welmed at the moment I have decided at age 44 to go back to school to obtain my Master's (an excellerated 1 program) while working full time. What was I thinking. It is a personal goal and thought if I had something else to do it would help me occupy my time instead of worrying about my son. It is going to be tough... but I guess you can do just about anything for a year.

Comment by JudyB. on May 21, 2010 at 11:00am: Good Morning Kim- Did you see Grey's last night?! How riveting talk about roller coaster of a different kind!!

Comment by Sealifedifferently-ship11/Div209 on May 21, 2010 at 10:44am: Judy, my name is Kim

Comment by Anniebug57 on May 20, 2010 at 9:17pm: Sophia - he left from BWI on Thursday, April 15.

Comment by JudyB. on May 20, 2010 at 9:13pm: I would be really surprised if T failed inspections because he is a Neat freak!! All his under clothes are folded, uniformed in a straight line and he Hates clutter!! I think some stray gene came through the gene pool lol. Oh! RDC: Recruit Division Commander, are Petty officers with at least 6 years experience in the fleet who lead divisions.
RCPO: Recruit Cheif Petty Officer, This recruit is in charge of the division when the RDC is absent. Hope this helps!!

Comment by Sophia on May 20, 2010 at 9:04pm: Well I guess it isn't the whole division that failed. But they had a lot of people who did fail their personal inspections which is why the division didn't get phone calls on Sunday.

Comment by JudyB. on May 20, 2010 at 8:59pm: Sealifediferently - May I ask you your name? I feel we have talked enough to be on first name basis. I do not understand it Tristan Never revealed anything about the div not failing inspections bet he did stress that he felt like he could punch his pillow because he could not call on Sunday night.

Comment by Sealifedifferently-ship11/Div209 on May 20, 2010 at 8:37pm: My son is in the same division as yours Trisians Mom & Sophia but my sons letter did not mention the group failing any inspections, such as his individual inspections and PT scores. ... probably did not want me to worry. He sounded upbeat and was excited about the firearms portion as well.
