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."

Hello all!

Please post your Ship/Division number in this discussion that way we know what all divisions and ships are included in this PIR group. It is very helpful for later groups to be formed as well as knowing who is in our group!!

Hey mmiles - I'm still new to this site and sometimes confused about how to get information and where to go on the site.  I'm not much of a facebook person, so some of this is confusing to me.  Where can I go to get discussions with people who have an RC on the same ship and division as ours?  Also, I have another son (I have three) who is going to join the navy and he would like to know more about the Intelligance Specialist job. Can you tell me what all is involved in getting in to that and what all they do?  Thanks for all your interesting info you always post. Thanks! Claudie :)
My son is Ship 07 Division 187. I see someone mentioned a counter with days......where is that??
The counter is whenyou first click into the group right above the discussions :o)
My son's best friend is Ship 07 Division 187.  I can't wait to hear from him :)
Yea!! So happy when I see people in the same group!! I haven't heard from my son yet either, and I can't wait!!
