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."

I have instructed my staff at work to answer my phone in case I walk away from my desk and forget to take my phone with me.  Please let this call come soon.

Getting anxious .... I thought the calls would be coming through by now. Did any of you get calls this past weekend? I was surprised I didn't get a call from my son because I had heard from him the last couple of weeks. I guess I am just hoping that all is ok.

Cool!!!  Just saw MattsMom reply that the whole division passed!!  Yay!!!   I can breathe again!!

Hi MattsMom,  I received the notification that you posted pics of the graduation but I am unable to located them.  Can you please direct me to where you posted them?  My son is in Div 812 and he was the stick holding the drill flag (gun crossed with the sword) and the RPOC was standing directly in front of him and totally blocked him from our view.  So I'm desperately seeking pics from the ceremony if there are any.  Thank you if you can help me out!! - Stacy
