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 diannep on August 16, 2011 at 7:35pm: NavyMomJeg> Every base is different as far as when they "change to the Blues," but the question had been asked on RTC FB not too long ago...

Comment by FireTeamLeaderWife aka FTLW on August 16, 2011 at 7:10pm: DRod's mom-yes this is your TG. Yes there are some state specific groups. Which one were you looking for? We can help you find it OR you can enter it into the search engine WAYYY up in the right top corner of the page next to your N4M name/sign out area in the blue bar.

Comment by NavyMomJeg on August 16, 2011 at 5:50pm: Thanks diannep for the update on the uniform. I was wondering about that too. I wasn't sure if they followed the "no white after Labor Day" rule ;)

Comment by DRod's mom (HM-S.A.) on August 16, 2011 at 3:15pm: Same here is this the right group for me? Ship-09 div-323. And are there state specific groups.

Comment by FireTeamLeaderWife aka FTLW on August 16, 2011 at 3:11pm: Please make sure you read "Calls from your SR" to prep for your first call. It's by JessicaBSailormom who was a very supportive veteran on here also.
I'll bump it up in the Discussion Forum.

Comment by FireTeamLeaderWife aka FTLW on August 16, 2011 at 3:05pm: Don't worry ladies...being in your PIR group will get you going as far as grasping the "how too's". Pretty soon you'll be adding on others like PIR info, "A" schools info, your Sailors rating (job), maybe a group with the state you are in or the part of the state you reside in...before you know it...you'll he helping others! Enjoy the ride!
