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, my daughter is in DIV 231 USS TRITON.

@Breesmom11, Did your daughter's division move ships since she's been there or has she always been on USS Triton? I'm asking because we found out our SR's division is moving from ship 09 to another over the past weekend.

 

The same thing happened to my boyfriend, he wrote me that he was changing ships from 09 to 12. I couldnt make out the name of the ship in his handwriting so good to know that's what its called. 

My boyfriend is in this division too Nicole!! :) Getting close to PIR!

Nicole, my daughter's boyfriend is in this division. We have the new address for him. Are you on the FB 8/1/14 PIR page? If not, you should join. Lots of support & info.

I am not, I'll go check that out right now :)

Sorry for butting in, but thanks Kelly, I hadn't found that FB page :)

Nicole, If you need the address just let me know! :)

how do I know when the facebook group has accepted me? is there a notification?

I would say within 24 hours. They just like to make sure you're joining for the right reasons since it's a private group. I'm sure by tonight or tomorrow you will be accepted.  If you want to message me your fb name I can try to invite you from within the PIR 8/1 group or you can wait. :)

i'll wait i guess, and i'll let you know if i havent heard anything and need an invitation. im just too excited to wait any longer!! :D

No prob! :)
