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 July 8, 2011 at 8:21am: I have a friend whose SR is in 228 that said she did have BS last night. She is awaiting the call today. I believe they finish around 0800 today.

Comment by CAnavymom(MMN) on July 8, 2011 at 2:01am: dianne - that's what we are thinking...will let you know tomorrow if we get our calls :)

Comment by diannep on July 7, 2011 at 11:20pm: So, we are wondering if 227+228 are doing BattleStations right now? If so, expect calls tomorrow starting around 2 pm GL time...could be a little before or later, so have the phones available all day...in the bras is a good place! :-)

Comment by CAnavymom(MMN) on July 7, 2011 at 7:46pm: Karin, that's because they just had their BS. I'm pretty certain ours will be tonight...so we should get our calls tomorrow.

Comment by karin on July 7, 2011 at 7:30pm: hi everyone, i was just on face book recruit training command site and people who has recruits in div 226, said they just got the i am a sailor call, and they graduate tomorrow. just thought i would share what i saw on face book :(

Comment by elizabeth on July 7, 2011 at 7:26pm: I also got a black backpack today. I found it at Walmart, it was only $17.00, about $40.00 less then all the other back packs I have seen. It had one little logo on the front that was stitched, I took it off and you can't even see that it was there. I also will be extremely happy when we can talk, text and facebook again. My SR was sick and taken to the VA hospital, he said not to worry about him they took good care of him at the hospital, but he has a couple of things he needs to figure out how to complete them in time. He is looking forward to having some different food, asked me to find a good restaurant that we can take him to while on Liberty.

Comment by Lala Ribbon Queen PIR Ribbons on July 7, 2011 at 7:24pm: So glad the ribbons are arriving and that you guys love them :-)

Comment by southern mom on July 7, 2011 at 7:08pm: Ok ladies, thought I would put this up for anyone who is looking for a black backpack to pack up your SR's laptop, cell phones, ipods and such in. I found one finally todya at Staples. they were 28.00 and it is made for carrying laptops. So now I will get his stuff packed in it for the airport. I will be so glad when we can go back to texting and talking on the phone again!!!
