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 southern mom on August 16, 2011 at 8:06am: I miss my PIR group moms!! Would love to hear from you all! I use to be glued to this page everyday!! As I was reading some old posts here, I was really sad thinking about you all. lets stay in touch. Everyone posts something about your new sailor!!!!! I'll start......... My son, Stephen, is at San Antonio, Texas in Corps school. he absolutely loves it! he will be going to phase 3 labor day weekend and then we plan to take a trip our there soon. At phase 3 he will be allowed to stay overnight with us in our hotel so that will be nice to not have to take him back. I am so glad that we are able to communicate often. How about you guys? Where are your new sailors?

Comment by Christy on August 14, 2011 at 10:35am: ohevetbeni glad to hear you are going for a visit. I probalble will not get to see my son tell Nov....it is sooooo hard. Did face time with him the other day and that helped but there are time I miss him more than when he was doing bc even thou we talk daily...go figure.

Comment by Christy on August 13, 2011 at 8:44am: Hi Ladies just wanted to check in. I know we have all moved on but I miss hearing how everyone is doiong.

Comment by AndreaLynnE on August 1, 2011 at 11:00am: Lindee - I would love to join a group on FB. When it's created, send me a message on how to get in. My son is at NATTC in Pensacola. He started classes last week and phased up Saturday. He was so excited to go to the mall yesterday. He also bought a new laptop and phone as soon as he could. Funny the things they think they can't live without. But I am also very glad about it since I can talk to him every day now.

Comment by Christy on July 31, 2011 at 6:00pm: LINDEE I am a little behind and do not have a FB yet but plan to. Thanks I will be careful what I say when I get one.

Comment by Christy on July 31, 2011 at 5:59pm: LINDEE SR'S MOM...Hi good to hear from you. I think your son is on the other base...NAS(?)...not Corry Station. They are about 10 mim apart. My son has a laptop and new iphone (he bought immeditatly after BC...lol) ut no TV or game system. They have a lounge to watch TV and a friend has a game system. That is probable best for him.

Comment by LINDEE SR'S MOM on July 31, 2011 at 4:57pm: you have to be invited to be in it and NO ONE sees what is being said.

Comment by LINDEE SR'S MOM on July 31, 2011 at 4:55pm: this is a PRIVATE group, as I said.

Comment by LINDEE SR'S MOM on July 31, 2011 at 1:05pm: I am also in a group on FB called Crazy Navy Mom's We could start a private group like that and then we could call our kids by their names. Anyone up for that?

It's a lot more personal.

Comment by LINDEE SR'S MOM on July 31, 2011 at 1:04pm: is RobynT still on here. My son told me that her son is his bunkmate.

My son was classed up yesterday so civilian clothes and x-box are being mailed tomorrow. He has a tv but no computer so he feels so LEFT OUT,ha. I'm sure it won't be long b4 he figures a way to get a computer. His at home wasn't a laptop. He is in Pensacola also in AT, is that Corry Station? I forget to ask him. I think there are 2 there(?) NAS also? He is Aviation Tech and starts class tomorrow.
