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 NI39 on May 9, 2010 at 10:09pm: Thanks on the Pic! That is one of my projects while he is gone to organize and scrapbook his photo's. I know my son is thinking of me today and he is confident in my relationship with him. That all makes me ok. I think its the going through photo's. It seams like the time just flew by and I look back and ask myself did I do enough or spend that time right? I have looked at most of the things on those pages...and am enjoying and also hoping to see a photo somewhere along the line. lol I have thier fan pages on my facebook andd they post alot thier too. I bet we will be seeing more moms in the next week or two. I think they just dont have thier form letter like you said. ;) Ours came on Saturday also and I was surprized.I thought he wouldnt be able to write until today.

Comment by annafornavy on May 9, 2010 at 9:14pm: Have you been to the offical Navy page yet? It has great info.. I gues they print a newspaper every other week and it updates you on what is happening at Great Lakes.. I am hoping to maybe catch a glimpse of my son.. LOL. When you click on the news paper it will go to a warning page click view anyway and it will download. Also on the right hand side it has a line that says Recruit Training Command Click on that and ther is a tab that says familes that is where we will download our pass for PIR from. I have looked at almost everything on that page.. Because I need to know..

Comment by annafornavy on May 9, 2010 at 9:09pm: LOL... I know the boys will be thinking MOTHERS!!! Hopefully it brings a smile to their face. I have not seen many 6/25/10 moms on the site.. The Divisons that will be graduating are: 223 - 227 but I know some of the ships are differnt and then there will be a band divison graduating which is a 900 number like 930. I am not sure if everyone has got their form letter yet. I know my did not arrive until Saturday which was driving me nuts..
