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 shoprat on September 11, 2011 at 7:44am: Kimmie, I have seen that video before, but this morning it made me cry; reposted it. Good morning everyone--5 Days! :)

Comment by proudmom11 (ship11 div314) on September 11, 2011 at 7:39am: Received two phone calls yesterday that made my day. My daughter is doing well and I can tell she's proud of herself. Today they had a recruit in Heaven day. Restaurants brought in food, they could make phone calls and use the internet.

I also wanted to thank all of you for all your posts that helped me make it this far. Hope to see you at the M & G or PIR,

Thanks again and God Bless.

Comment by Anita n Ohio on September 10, 2011 at 8:33pm: Drill team - riffle corp. Look at pic from RTC's facebook page and PIR pictures from last two Fridays. They show 02/944's Marching band, drumline (different group of musicians), choir and riffle corp. VERY IMPRESSIVE! Yeah, my daughter is the female playing the bass drum in marching band and I've done HAPPY DANCES in my chair at work every Friday when those pics were posted. Many other "moms" here have had the fortune to be able to see their SR on these pics. I'd name them (the moms) but I'm scared I'd accidentall leave them out so I'll let them speak for themselves :-)

Comment by diannep on September 10, 2011 at 8:30pm: Just sent out a GROUP MESSAGE with the remaining BattleStations dates. Please be sure to check your PERSONAL EMAIL, not your email on the N4Moms site. Check your junk mail/spam folders too as sometimes this is kicked into them.

Comment by arod on September 10, 2011 at 8:29pm: I know but has put me in a mood and my husband keeps telling me to go take a nap.

Comment by Pennie on September 10, 2011 at 8:24pm: arod my SR is in a different division but I haven't heard from my SR in over 5 weeks. And I am looking at it as no news is good news. But would give anything short of selling my soul to speak to him. Hang in there it wont be long now.
