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 Karen(Nick's Mom) on September 28, 2011 at 9:02pm: Thanks diannep. You're a gem!

Comment by heard t on September 28, 2011 at 8:35pm: diannep we couldnt of made it without you. Thnks for everything and I say that with tears in my eyes.

Comment by Micaela (AO Wife) on September 28, 2011 at 8:22pm: Thank You again and again diannep! I don't think I can thank you enough.

Comment by diannep on September 28, 2011 at 8:18pm: Congrats to all of the sailors of 9/30! BattleStations is done for all! Safe travel tomorrow to GL...and get ready for an adventure of a lifetime!

HOOYAH! and....a Bravo Zulu to all of the sailors!

Comment by Micaela (AO Wife) on September 28, 2011 at 7:16pm: Karen: I actually asked RTC about this in regards to my step-mother in law. my husband wrote her without her new married name. For instance: her name is Susan Ramus Jacob. he wrote Susan Ramus and they told me it was a problem. Worst case scenario is that he will have to wait until all names on list go in....but my hubby said this graduating class is not as big and there will be plenty of seats available...so dont stress.

Comment by Karen(Nick's Mom) on September 28, 2011 at 6:52pm: My son mentioned that he put his grandpa's nickname down on the list and not the legal name as it appears on his driver's license(no one ever calls him by his legal name). Do you think that will be a problem at security check?

Comment by Micaela (AO Wife) on September 28, 2011 at 6:25pm: Thank you Desiree! and Ive never felt so close to a group of people i have never met! but I thank you all! can't believe its finally here!

Comment by heard t on September 28, 2011 at 6:14pm: I feel so blessed to of had such a wonderful group of people to share this journey with. Continued blessings to everyone and their families.

Comment by desireenavygf (Ship 11 DIV 322) on September 28, 2011 at 6:04pm: That's great news micaela. Congrats. And a big congrats to all the new sailors.

Comment by Micaela (AO Wife) on September 28, 2011 at 5:57pm: CONGRATS TO ALL OF THE NEW SAILORS!!!

MIDWAY USO UPDATE: The woman I spoke to gave me her Boss's cell phone number that I will call tomorrow morning (he was out) in regards to the matter. I will post information as soon as I get an answer tomorrow before i take off.....
