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 JudyB. on May 15, 2010 at 6:19pm: Hell week would be ? The week of Marlin Spike, RDC Physical Assessment, Weapons turn over inspection and DMI...I believe.

Comment by Kathryn on May 15, 2010 at 6:04pm: Tristans mom My son is on SHIP 07 DIV 208 In his letter he mentioned it being Hell Week. Just curious if someone knows what all that is? I didnt get a call so I hoping that is a good thing, My son shades out that emblem too. I just thought it was him.

Comment by LMC -mom of 2 Sailors! on May 15, 2010 at 6:01pm: Ian will be in the same location as Wayne in Fl P'cola. Maybe they will get to fly down together. Travel buddies. LOL

Nuke- I also told him that I think the baby is the official mascot of PIR. 6/11/10 LOL

Comment by Krystal(Trevor'swife) on May 15, 2010 at 5:03pm: TristansMom-That's good that you are writing about what's going on in the outside world...because I haven't been! I barely know what's going on right now lol I haven't been watching much news lately. I know they like to hear what is going on.

LMC-Thanks for writing to him no matter what it is! He will love any mail!

Comment by Jeff's momShip11Div210 on May 15, 2010 at 3:44pm: I beieve it's IT(information tech) school in Pensacola

Comment by JudyB. on May 15, 2010 at 3:35pm: My son T is a Corpsman Reservist. after PIR he will start A school on Monday 6/14 there in GL for approx. 3-4 months then on to 29 Palms or Camp Pendleton for another 2-3 months. Then it's just 1 weekend a month for the next 6 years. T feels he's to old to start a full time career with the Navy, but wants to stand ready when and if Liberty needs him. He has a AA degree in Criminal Justice and wants to further his education into a branch of the police services and or emergency response. In this day and age education is key and you still are not guaranteed a life long position with benefits and a retirement so the more experience you have behind you (especially Military) the better the chances.

Comment by Joyce - NavyMom Oceana on May 15, 2010 at 3:30pm: Wayne's going to Pensacola for Aviation Mechanics. Where in FL is Ian going? My son also wrote and told me to add USS Constitution...but in his last letter he didn't include the ship name. I'm thinking the ship names are just for their bootcamp location.

Comment by LMC -mom of 2 Sailors! on May 15, 2010 at 2:40pm: As for the return my son blacks that out also but the other young man I wrote to didn't so I have no clue why.

Jeff's mom- What will your sailor's A school be in Fla? My son is Activation Support tech when he goes to Fla.

I too have sent Trevor some notes nothing real exciting but mail I did send him that comment about the Mom's test. I thought it was pretty cute. I told him to do well on his tests at boot.

Comment by Jeff's momShip11Div210 on May 15, 2010 at 2:27pm: My son's letter has Kearsarge also but He is going to A school In Florida after graduation(as far as I know)

Comment by JudyB. on May 15, 2010 at 1:53pm: Pretty much I'm his CNN channel! lol I try not to get to descriptive...don't want him to start worrying about you and the baby in the big bad world, do we?! That whenever he is feeling low...just picture that he is with you and the baby and feeling the love...
