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 proudmom on March 12, 2012 at 5:54pm: It is a different page.

Comment by spring932 on March 12, 2012 at 5:49pm: proudmom.... is that the RTC FB page or a different one?

Comment by proudmom on March 12, 2012 at 5:36pm: On FB Naval Service Training Command page has posted some pictures of recruits from March 6th, I don't think they are our recruits but ck just in case.

Comment by k_peirce (AD wife) on March 12, 2012 at 5:06pm: when my SR sent me my first letters last week he said he will most likely get the whole weekend to spend with us (he is going to Pensacola for A-school). he said that they should know for sure within a week or two.

Comment by Teach on March 12, 2012 at 4:37pm: bdmama - How does he know his flight info already? I heard they don't find out until a day or two before PIR and after they pass BS.

Comment by Kahli's Mom on March 12, 2012 at 4:26pm: I appreciate the words. Should I be concerned that I haven't heard from my SR yet? I see other moms from her same division who have gotten calls. I am seriously making myself sick worrying about her

Comment by bdmama on March 12, 2012 at 3:25pm: Got more phone call info this morning from his gf, (call was Friday, so no new calls). He did say his flight Saturday after PIR is at 6pm. Just a heads up for any others that may have sailors (!) flying to San Antonio, this may be their time too. Hopefully, this doesn't change so we can have a bit more time with him.

Comment by diannep on March 12, 2012 at 3:00pm: Way to go, spring, on the tax refund paying for your trip! HOOYAH!

Comment by Lala Ribbon Queen PIR Ribbons on March 12, 2012 at 2:47pm: Yeah, I expect to get some back as well but I still hate doing them lol. We have been saving for a year while sharing one vehicle so we plan to take what we saved and our refund to put down on a truck for my hubby :-)

Comment by spring932 on March 12, 2012 at 2:15pm: TeacherMom...... thanks, I just want to make sure she has $$ for pictures LOL

Lala....... I did my taxes last weekend and was surprised I actually got $$ back and enough to pay for our trip to PIR
