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 C's proud mom (Ship 3 Div 175) on May 28, 2012 at 11:48am: 175 too! Got the longest call yet! Loved it! Can't wait until next week.

Comment by jenn724 Ship7 Division 161 on May 28, 2012 at 11:23am: Good Morning all. My daughter and her husband Graduated Friday 5/25. I did take a picture of some handsome young men from 930. There are only about 6 of them in the photo, but if you have a son in that div, let me know, and I will get you the photo.

Comment by diannep on May 28, 2012 at 8:34am: gc0972: Blessings to your daughter as she continues her trek to become a sailor. I agree with FTLW...although percentage of waivers to re-enlist now being accepted are very low, some are getting back in. Hoping your daughter is one of them!

Happy Memorial Day, all! Remembering all of our military today...past and present! God Bless Them!

Comment by kathyrc(Ship03DIV175)PIR 6/08/12 on May 28, 2012 at 8:30am: gc0972 - I am so very sorry for you and your daughter...good wishes are being sent your way and I hope things will work out the best possible way for her!

Comment by gc (ship009div172 PIR6/8) on May 28, 2012 at 1:18am: Looks like the weather in Chicago area is cooling off by the end of the week (highs in mid 50s and low 60s and lows in mid 40s) Brrrr! This southern girl may freeze up there. LOL! Wondering how in the world to pack!

Comment by FireTeamLeaderWife aka FTLW on May 27, 2012 at 9:18pm: Gc0972 - Continued prayers for your daughter. It is hard and the percentage is low...but somebody has to be on the percent that do get back...so hope it is her.
I have a favor to ask...would you please appoint some of the veteran moms as administrators of the group so we can make changes to it such as... after PIR adding "Alumni" to the name? TY!

Comment by Gc0972 on May 27, 2012 at 9:10pm: Congratulations to everyone that has an SR graduating. Thank you for your continued support and hopefully my daughter will be able to get back in eventually. It is what she wants. The thing is we have to go through an admiral to get her waiver because she forgot to tell them something before getting to boot camp. They considered it fradulant enlistment and that is why she got sent home :( These waivers I have been told are hard to get so please keep her in your prayers. Thanks again to all of you. Good luck with everything :)
