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 spring932 on April 5, 2012 at 1:33pm: RE the RTC Capping Ceremony pictures.... a comment on FB stated that it is 810 and possibly 115/116

Comment by blithes0me on April 5, 2012 at 1:28pm: So, because my mother can't come with me, she's asking me to post this. I booked my flight today in the cheapest way possible- but the catch was I didn't know the times until AFTER I made the transaction... big mistake. I won't be arriving to O'Hare until 8:30 pm and I don't drive. I will be staying at the Waukegan Ramada Inn... Will anyone be arriving then that I could maybe drive with? My mom is terrified of me traveling alone and I would be spending 80+ on cab fare. Ugh- I am so lost. I want to cancel all this altogether. But I don't.

Comment by Crazy Blonde (Ship 2, Div-925) on April 5, 2012 at 1:25pm: I THINK this is TG22 in these pics. I'm just not sure, It could be TG21 Does anyone know? http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10150701774974651.420237.3...

Comment by bdmama on April 5, 2012 at 12:43pm: Can you send me the battlestation date for Div 922? Thanks so much.

Comment by astrid on April 5, 2012 at 12:37pm: Morning all, I just joined this PIR group. My SR was delayed from graduating due to a medical situation. Just had a very brief call on TUE night that graduation is 4/13. I have no idea which DIV though. I wonder who knows which DIV in this group is either female or co-ed. Many thanks in advance!

Comment by diannep on April 5, 2012 at 12:02pm: Did 810 go through last night? I guess we will know in a few hours if they make calls home. Keep phones handy just in case!

Comment by WendyJ on April 5, 2012 at 9:17am: La La Ribbon Queen - Your ribbons are beautiful! I'm so disappointed I didn't order any for my family...

Comment by shermur (ship 12 div 121) on April 5, 2012 at 8:33am: My SR stated in a letter I got yesterday that she has been battling shin splints, but she is determined to pass and graduate on time....I have high hopes that she does!

Comment by mackay214(ship 02 Div 922) on April 5, 2012 at 8:17am: Thanks diannep not knowing is the worst part. come on April 13 th !

Comment by diannep on April 5, 2012 at 8:12am: Ladies, if you have not received a call from your SR that they didn't pass their final PFA, therefore they say they won't graduate, I would not be worried. No news is good news. Not sure if all have completed their final PFA, but if they don't pass it before their division does Battlestations, they are allowed to call home and then told to tell you they didn't pass, won't graduate, don't come. Just know that this is not completely true. They still have chances to pass their PFA before BattleStations and be at PIR. So hang in there...lots of prayers!
