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."

diannep - I'm speaking w/ info fa4airtran got from her SR last week - that BS for 205 would be 6/13. My reaction was the same as yours, that it seems awfully late based on PIR being 6/17. VERY little time to change plans. I believe our DIV were late being completely formed to the point that today is 5-1 for them. They have not done firefighting yet nor the gas chamber as of last night. I wouldn't take my word for the date, but based on the info you got from 203, it seems to be in line.

Thanks, MamaCindy. Well, they usually go in numerical order from lowest to highest (not the 800/900 divisions). But since they can go up to 4 a night, maybe they are going with 4 divisions for 2 nights, and 3 the other night. We shall see!

Diannep, Hi, my daughter is in 209 so you happem to know what date

Thank you

Angel: We get the dates from your SRs (through you all!). That is the only way to know. Probably would either be Tues/Wed or Wed/Thurs at this point. Please post if you hear a date from your SR!
