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."

This discussion is for those who have an SR in Ship 04, DIV 820 and 821,  PIR 10/14/11.   These are brother divisions and will be spending a lot of time together from what I understand.  Remember OPSEC rules and for security purposes...no pictures of your SR or names of SR.  God bless you all!

 You are so sweet navmom...I too appreciate the support, information and advice received on here.  I agree with you navmom and feel the same about you all!  I am so thankful for the new friends I have made on here.  

I'm with you in agreement on asking God to keep all our boys safe and healthy no matter what their paths in the Navy.  And I ask that God bless and watch over them AND their moms, families and loved ones; to grant us wisdom to say the right things to support them, and enough love and faith to get them and us through the tough road ahead of them, where ever it may take them.  

Thanks to all of you and God bless you all, your families and our sons on their paths, whatever it may be or where ever it may lead....

 

OK Spec OP moms I have your battlestation dates if you would like to private message me and I will tell you can not be posted on here though has to be in private message.
I am so confused about this site and can't figure out how to PM you!?  Can you private message me the dates for 820???  Thank you sooo much!
I friend requested you.....just waiting for a response.
I am in the same boat with NavySister907... can't figure out how to PM you... but would really appreciate the date for Div 820...
I think you click on her, do a friend request. Once accepted you can message each other...at least thats what i think....

Thanks navmom... I tried that and am waiting a response so I think it worked...

 

I am confused about this website as well how do I PM you?  Or could you please PM me the battlestation dates for Div 820?  Thank you
I sent you a friend request to get the information for div 821.  My son wrote dates in a letter to me, so I am interested to see if the dates match.
I don't understand? I don't know that dates. And I would love to!! But I don't know how to friend request you?? My son is in 04/821 also.
I figured it out! I sent you a friend request :)
 I sent a friend request to proud2baNavyMom (Ship 4 DIV 342) because she said she had dates.  My son sent dates to me in a letter, so I will see if they match and then send all the information to you too.  Know what is funny - the fact that we are all mysterious here, yet on facebook we speak freely - on the RTC page no less.  So guess what - you and I are already facebook friends.  BlueBetty is the name of my sons hot rod (car) - my name is Sue.  We only have 9 days + 1 wake up left, I have said nothing to hurt my son (in case the RTC read this :)  I have cried for 7 weeks, I am now getting brave, strong and ready to walk on the wild side  - I just told my  REAL (first) name.  Everyone have a great day and will see you all NEXT WEEK.  Feels soooo good to say that.  Looking forward to the meet and greet!  Travel safe everyone!!!
