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 Darnell on February 14, 2011 at 1:26pm: I did notice that they responded to someone on facebook and said the pics would be posted today. So lets hope so. Well ladies I have no fingernails left. Hang in there.

Have a good day and I'll post if I get a call.

Comment by NavyMomX's2(Ship 03 Div 334) on February 14, 2011 at 4:07am: our letter said she would call on the 14th. Good thing is we do know that it has to be in the next couple of days. Please let us know when you get that call. I'll do the same. God Bless them all and us! Hugs Can't wait to fly into Chicago on Thursday. 3 days to go!

Comment by Sailormom21811 on February 13, 2011 at 9:55pm: I'm seeing a pattern of the female recrruits on Sun/Mon and male on Mon/tues...there may not be anything to it but it is possible the girls could go on a different night. Just praying for all until all are sailors!!! Hugs to everyone. It is a stressful time. See you Friday!

Comment by julie067 on February 13, 2011 at 9:24pm: Whatever the date, we know it is coming and so do they. We just have to keep them in our thoughts and prayers.

Comment by sherrys on February 13, 2011 at 7:45pm: My son said in his letter that BS is Monday and they should finish on Tuesday the 15th. So - I'm afraid it might be Tuesday before we receive those long awaited phone calls. Tick tock - tick tock.

Comment by julie067 on February 13, 2011 at 6:24pm: I was told a phone call on the 14th in her letter. I hope they get the 6 hours of downtime today to rest up for Battlestations.Wondering if they are having computer problems and that is why the 2/11 grad pics are not posted. I have noticed they are not responding to questions.

Comment by kellroy(ship2,div913) on February 13, 2011 at 5:45pm: @ Darnell - I hope it IS tonight, cause this is driving me crazy!! I'm taking my phone everywhere and I'm even sleeping with it over the next 2 days! :)

Comment by Darnell on February 13, 2011 at 5:29pm: Hello ladies,

Im just going by what my daughter told me in her letter, that BS is Sunday night and that she would call on Monday. Either way it gos I will be praying for them.

I know you ladies who live down south think Im crazy but it is like summer here in Minnesota. 47degrees. cant believe it. I have all the windows open letting in some fresh air. Lol

Hope everyone is starting their packing. It will be here before we know it ladies.

I think we should send good thoughts for our recruits tonight just in case.

Comment by usapaula (ship 02 div 913) on February 13, 2011 at 1:27pm: Our Recruit just drew them with an 'x' = me !! Looks like its somewhere in the middle. He also says that he will come out halfway thru in a smaller band of 12 Sailors.

Comment by MariaM on February 13, 2011 at 12:41pm: Thank you usapaula for the rest of the weather!!!!
