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."

OPSEC, OPerational SECurity, is always of the utmust importance. Please take the timeto read the Opsec and Community Guidelines. A quick note here: Last Names are not allowed on this site. If it is different from your Recruits it is still not recommended. First Names and pictures of your Recruit are allowed but remember someone can easily match them up with their "mom".

Comment by KayOh226 on January 23, 2012 at 1:08pm: I read somewhere that a Honor Recruit's family gets to sit in a special place. Is that true? My husband is the honor graduate for DIV: 058 and I just wanted to know if there really is special seating or not. :)

Comment by tracybraun2012 on January 23, 2012 at 12:58pm: Does anyone know what a zone flag is for? It is not listed in the thread on flags and pennants. Thanks

Comment by AngelW (Ship 07 Div 060) on January 23, 2012 at 11:44am: Thanks! I have the informatiion. I won't misplace it again :)

Have a great day!!

Comment by diannep on January 23, 2012 at 11:09am: CamoMom: There is a discussion above about the flags they earn, posted by FTLW. I'll bump it up.

Comment by dragon7 on January 23, 2012 at 10:57am: Yea for 804!

Comment by G-Mom on January 23, 2012 at 9:51am: Angel, I set you an email with Div T info.

Comment by AngelW (Ship 07 Div 060) on January 23, 2012 at 9:25am: Good Morning Beautiful Ladies!!

I spent over an hour searching for a couple of things last night. Can anyone help me out with the "Div Shirts" and also the trip from our hotels to Chicage to see the Sears Tower? I know they are on here somewhere, but i was not able to find them.

Thank you for your help and everyone have a great day!

Comment by diannep on January 23, 2012 at 9:11am: Hi, Lani. Was great to meet you and Jordan last night...sorry I didn't buy any cookies...unfortunately, they go straight to my HIPS! HA! Way to go, Jordan, in selling so many boxes of Girl Scout cookies! That's wonderful!

I actually go to University Baptist in the Gables. Christ Fellowship is much closer for me though. But have been in my church for 36 yrs...so I'm a creature of habit. Actually, our pastors are very good friends with one another and our services, I understand, are very similar!

Hmmmm....a bikini at PIR. Now THAT would be interesting, Lala! Never say never! You and I know we saw all kinds of dress at PIR...so you just never know! :-)

Good morning, all!

Comment by Lala Ribbon Queen PIR Ribbons on January 22, 2012 at 10:42pm: Sorry I was away all day. I had so many orders to complete for your PIR and the one after that I have to stay off the computer to get them all done and shipped in plenty of time for PIR. I am going to be very busy for the next week. You should all have your orders within a few days if you have not received them already. Thanks again for all the order. I really appreciate it.

Yum yum girl Scout cookies are so good. I must not eat sweets, I must not eat sweets.... lol

Lani your daughter sounds like quite a salesman, maybe she could come work for me lol

I can't believe the stores already have summer stuff out, I don't think you will need a bikini for PIR, unless you got a hotel with an indoor pool lol.

Comment by Lani on January 22, 2012 at 9:46pm: I just wanted to say thank you to Diannep for coming out to my daughter's Girl Scout cookie booth tonight. It was so nice to meet you since you have provided such great information along with the other veterans on this site. Turns out we live about 10 minutes away from each other. So yes ”newbies”, the veterans are real! I forgot to ask you Dianne if you attend Christ Fellowship? Jordan did pretty well. She sold 47 boxes tonight. I can't wait until 2/3/12!
