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."

Welcome families and friends of Salilor Recruits with PIR THURSDAY, December 29, 2011.

OPSEC, OPerational SECurity, is always of the utmust importance. Please take the time to read the Opsec and Community Guidelines. A quick note here: Last Names are never 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 discouraged as their RDC's read this site and can easily match them up with their "mom". So you might want to consider changing your profile picture.CLICK MEOPSECandCOMMUNITY GUIDELINES

Comment by diannep on November 7, 2011 at 3:37pm: Feel better, Betsy and FTLW! I don't like taking any meds...especially ones with alcohol in them (teetotaler her so don't care for any alcohol products! ). But hope you both are on the mend! Vitamin C, lots of it, is very good for fighting off "things!" The excess will pass out of your system, so it is ok to take.

Comment by diannep on November 7, 2011 at 3:35pm: Michelle: If the SR orders Pkg A, it comes with a "free" Keel (yearbook). If you order Pkg A after PIR, I was told that the free Keel is not included.

ilovemysailor: My son had an account here with a local bank before he left, but I told him to go ahead and set up a Navy Fed account when arriving at RTC, which he did. After bootcamp, he closed the local bank account. They set up their bank accounts during the processing days before training starts.

Comment by Betsy, mom of Stennis sailor on November 7, 2011 at 3:26pm: FTLW, I'm sorry that you are feeling badly too. ((Hugs)) I guess it's that time of year again. I hope you feel better soon too.

Comment by FireTeamLeaderWife aka FTLW on November 7, 2011 at 3:18pm: You are welcome Betsy! I hope you feel better soon! Nyquil has alcohol in it! That's why it knocks you out! Best stuff when you need the relief...and the sleep. Sleep is the best thing when you are sick anyways...the same hormone that helps you grow when you are little is what helps you recover from illnesses when you grow up! At least that's what my pediatrician said!

I have a touch of the stomach flu (going around...bleh) but it's Monday and gotta update and get the next PIR group going!

See you ladies...have a great day!

Comment by Betsy, mom of Stennis sailor on November 7, 2011 at 3:00pm: Good afternoon ladies.

FTLW's, thanks for passing on the info. I have been fighting a cough/cold and last night I took a Nyquil and found out that those thing really knock you out! I didn't even wake up today until 11:30a.m. I'm just glad that Monday is the day that my husband works from home, or my poor dog would have been crossing her legs for hours. lol

Comment by FireTeamLeaderWife aka FTLW on November 7, 2011 at 2:30pm: Every TG has "brother" divisions. They train together, house in the same ship (except that females and males are of course housed separately) and go through BS together. They are also in the Keel book together.

Brother Div for this group are:

21-22

23-24

25-26

27-28

900 divisions usually do not ahve a brother div...but this one will! 904-906

Comment by ArNavyMom on November 7, 2011 at 2:29pm: @ FTLW and Michelle - thank you. I will let her know. I'm sure with the new year approaching and all those new recruits - families are signing up. (much like me when my son told us he was enlisting back in January!)

Comment by Michelle02 on November 7, 2011 at 2:27pm: arnavymom it took me a few days to get approved thought I was lost in the system to.

Comment by FireTeamLeaderWife aka FTLW on November 7, 2011 at 2:26pm: I searched you son's GF and nothing came up...it can actually take a little while for some to be approved...don't know why. Hope it is soon.

Comment by Michelle02 on November 7, 2011 at 2:25pm: welcome Roslinda this site will give you alot of information. My son is in ship09 div 024 I think they might be neighbors...Michelle
