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."

That is the site listed in the letter sent to us. What other site should I try?
-
-
Click Here for the website to RTC (Recruit Training Command). It is on here - when it gets close to your graduation time.
There are also some interesting facts for you to read. That was the website I lived on when my son was in bootcamp - two years ago.

Brenda...wondering if my computer is blocking me or Navy is blocking me....I can't log on with the link you sent either....??
-
-
seriously doubt the Navy is blocking you. Check to see if there appears a small yellowish bar across the top of your screen when you click on it.
-
-
Nope, don't see anything that looks yellowish or out of the ordinary....it's like it just keeps thinking and will not connect.

Do you have the option of using a different browser (such as Mozilla FIrefox, which you can download free) or using another computer? That sometimes works. It has something to do with the settings on your computer.
If you get the page that says: "There is a problem with this website's security certificate." Go ahead and click "Continue to this website (not recommended)" even though it says it is not recommended, For some reason I used to have to click that almost every time I went to the RTC site, and some other navy sites too for some reason. Now most of them let me in without that, but every now and then it happens again. I guess it has something to do with the security settings.

There is now another option on the website address. http://www.bootcamp.navy.mil as well as http://www1.netc.navy.mil/nstc/rtcgl/index.asp to get to the RTC home page. I think that it is an attempt to simplify the address so that it is easier to remember.
