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."

sg357~Ship #7 Division #103- as long as they aren't impacted or have complications he should be fine. Rick's were impacted so they are going to take his out after A school so that he doesn't get set back.

HE CALLED!!!!! I was so elated just to hear his voice! Maybe I can breathe now! Everything is going well. Still all go for Feb 26th. He's not a grad n go! So I'll get to spend some time with him. He said I had at least 6 letters coming to me this week. So you guys we should be getting some updates this week!!! He sounded so good! I was a little worried after his letters they seemed a little down. But he's better. The first 3 weeks are the hardest! His recruiting officer and I are on good terms = he says they push them extra hard in that time period to weed out the ones that won't make it. So for some of you week 3 is closing and No News could be good news! If you guys here a news story about some idiot in GA turning cartwheels down interstate 75... IT WAS ME LOL

They do let them call home acording to the RTC web site when they are ill or have dental work completed because alot of the time this delays their PIR date. I had to look it up.

ok now I understand about the DEERS packet.. I wont be getting one.. Thanks for clearing me up on that! I have been the same with my phone, afraid to go out anywhere so that my phone wont go out of area. So anxious, just waiting on that call!
Comment by Debbie on January 24, 2010 at 11:17am
Good Morning Ladies - sad to say - no letter, no call. Matt is Ship 7 Div 106. Wondering if it is just him - he was never much of a writer! or his div?? Thanks to all for sharing the contents of their letters - it gives me some insight on what my son is doing!
Comment by crystaldj1972 6/915 on January 24, 2010 at 12:18am
ok so what is the deers packet? have I just not been listening? My son didnt say anything about what the plans were for him after PIR.
Comment by RicksWifeAmber on January 23, 2010 at 9:54pm
Navy diver wife ship04 div805 - I haven't received my DEERS packet either so don't worry just yet. I will let you know as soon as I do though and if you don't mind vs versa.
