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 Christy on July 30, 2011 at 10:06am: Sharon-Proud Sailor Mom...glad your son made it through. My son said he thought class would make this coming Monday. My son is not dored either. Says they are staying busy but is nerves and ready for class to make. Hope it does and praying for them. Have you also joined the IT group or the Pensacola group? I have.

Comment by Sharon-Proud Sailor Mom on July 26, 2011 at 9:59pm: Christy - my son is at Corry Station too - He did BattleStations with this group - had an injury and was set back, He's IT also. Hope they class up soon. He's not bored yet, though, just glad that BC is over! Also says that he learned a great deal from being set back about keeping your focus.

Comment by Christy on July 26, 2011 at 8:59pm: I am fine with the name unless someone has a better idea.

Elizabeth thanks can't wait to see pic. Glad to hear your son is feeling better and doing good.

Keger I am with you glaad BC is over My son sayes he has good memories from it and has made some good friends.

My son is at Corry Station and it has rained every day. Tomorrow afternoon will be his first liberty and I think he is ready to get out. The base has had lots of stuff to do but he is getting cabin fever. He is n hopes his IT class makes by Monday.

Comment by elizabeth on July 26, 2011 at 11:42am: Southern Mom, I think Justin said he was in the 200/Bravo and now was going to be in 205/Bravo, I am not positive though. He also said he is going to have to move into another building. He did say the division he was moving into has now filled up.

Comment by southern mom on July 26, 2011 at 8:47am: Elizabeth- my son Stephen is also at Ft. Sam Houston! I know Stephen said that his class got pushed back as well. he was in the 200/Bravo class. Is Justin in that one as well?

Comment by Birdiejr on July 25, 2011 at 12:19pm: Ohevetbeni - No suggestion for group name. This one is easy to identify that's for sure. Do you have a thought?

Comment by keger2001 on July 24, 2011 at 6:57pm: elizabeth, sorry about that, Jon is reserves, but he is going to be at Lakeland I guess and not at Houston.

Comment by elizabeth on July 24, 2011 at 6:30pm: Keger, He and two other mates were scheduled to start Aug. 3rd, then were told they had to wait for next classes because reserve get priority of classes. Hurry up and wait the, Navy Motto.

Comment by keger2001 on July 24, 2011 at 5:40pm: He is going to Lakeland, why so long to start?

Comment by elizabeth on July 24, 2011 at 5:35pm: Keger, Is Jon going to Fort Sam Houston? That is where my son Justin is, he is stilling waiting for classes to start, seems like it may be several weeks.
