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 michellep-div303-PIR09-10-10 on September 2, 2010 at 10:44am: We need a countdown to our BS! I can't wait. I kept waking up all night long wondering about the kids in 301/302 and praying they were all okay. Just a bundle of nerves so I can only imagine what Monday/Tuesday will bring!

Comment by Lynn Ship 09 Div 303 PIR 9-10 on September 1, 2010 at 10:14pm: We will be a blubbering mess together. =) I can hardly wait! I'm so glad he's reported back that he's feeling better. I have been so worried about his health.

Comment by Justins mom*Ship 9*Div 303* on September 1, 2010 at 9:55pm: Yeah I was kinda worried about the same thing, like maybe he was mad or something..although since I haven't talked to him I have no idea what I thought he would be mad about (I think all of us moms are half crazy at this point!!) So I guess he's just trying to be a good boy and study! I'll be so glad to see him and I know you can't wait to see your son too! I know I'm gonna be a blubbering mess!

Comment by Lynn Ship 09 Div 303 PIR 9-10 on September 1, 2010 at 8:23pm: Justin's mom - I have been sick over not getting letters from my recruit. His girlfriend wasn't getting any either. It just was not like him at all. Well, she got letters today, and he said to please tell me that he's not mad or anything like that but that he's just tired and busy studying. He did say in his letter he wrote to her on Sunday that he had just finished a letter for me. I didn't get it, so I don't know what's up with that. I hope to get it tomorrow. I said all that to say - YES, the communication has gotten way less for me too.

Comment by Justins mom*Ship 9*Div 303* on September 1, 2010 at 7:45pm: Okay I'm burning my blue candle, ready for BS...but I'm getting a little worried...I haven't heard from my son since he called on 8/21!!! Not even any letters!!!!! Is everyone else still getting letters/calls? : (

Comment by Maureen62 Proudmomofasailor on September 1, 2010 at 10:28am: Wish we had more info ya know ?

Comment by delawaremom-mom on September 1, 2010 at 10:26am: elisabethc grandson said paperwork was due 9/2 so I don't know if that means they have to have all tests, inspections passed, etc. paperwork due to see if recruits are eligible for BS and that's what the paperwork is and BS may be a different date not sure just guessing

Comment by delawaremom-mom on August 31, 2010 at 10:10pm: Good Evening all, just to let you know received a letter today dated 8/26 and 303 and 304 did Gas Chamber on 8/26, and paperwork due for BS on 9/2. Also, today they had Test 3 and on Wednesday final Drill Inspection. It's getting down to the wire! I'm so excited and can't believe PIR is one week from Friday! HooYah!!

Comment by delawaremom-mom on August 30, 2010 at 11:24am: Good Morning All, don't forget today is the day you can print your Parking/Gate Passes!! HooYah!!! Let's pray for all our recruits as they approach BS!!! Have a great day!!
