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 Teach on April 7, 2012 at 10:12pm: Shermur: so sorry you didn't hear today. I know how you feel. I've watched others post about phone calls for the last few weeks and never heard from our son. The only reason we got such a long time with him today is that he didn't have his gf phone number with him when they said they could call. We are still praying for your SR to pass running and go to BS. Keep the faith.

Comment by Rla1164 on April 7, 2012 at 9:47pm: That is so exciting that people are getting calls and facebook posts. I know my daughter (117) is looking forward to Recruit Heaven soon. She mentioned Taco Bell too.

Comment by shermur (ship 12 div 121) on April 7, 2012 at 9:47pm: Wonderful to hear, TeacherMom! I would have loved a phone call today...and whether or not SR has passed running to go to Battlesation or not...

Comment by Teach on April 7, 2012 at 9:10pm: My SR said he ate Taco Bell...LOTS OF IT...at recruit heaven. 922 was told no computer time today. While we were talking someone came and told him they could go to the gameroom also. He was also SUPER polite on the phone. When someone came and he had to listen to them, he said to me, "Pardon me a moment, please." I about fell out of my chair! What have they done with my rude overgrown teenager who refused to grow up? They have turned him into a polite, responsible man. Imagine that...and it didn't cost me a penny!

Comment by ryanfoosmom on April 7, 2012 at 8:56pm: My son is Div 119. Thank you for letting us know who won.

Comment by diannep on April 7, 2012 at 8:36pm: A place with restaurants, internet, etc for "down time" for the SRs. They can pay for internet time (cheap). Although some may get internet time BEFORE BattleStations arrive, most won't until afterwards. Some ladies on here find out they have sailors through FB before they get the call...some post while waiting their turn on the phones.

Comment by shermur (ship 12 div 121) on April 7, 2012 at 8:32pm: What is recruit heaven?

Comment by mamabeans on April 7, 2012 at 8:19pm: HAPPY BIRTHDAY LALA!!!!

Comment by mamabeans on April 7, 2012 at 8:19pm: Was SOOO good to get that sailor call! He sounded so proud! And today, I got a facebook post from him! He got internet time as part of recruit heaven! It was a nice surprise! Still hoping for a phone call though! He passed PFA and was in the top 5 of his division and got some kind of reward but he said he passed it to someone else because they needed it more? Not sure what it was that he got.

Comment by BobbysMomSH#04--DIV#119 on April 7, 2012 at 7:31pm: Yaaa!!!!That my son's division(119) too. Thanks La La for the ribbons, scarve and decals beautiful job. Keep on blessing families with your beutiful work!
