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."

Remember, the RTC asks that you wait on the form letter before sending letters.

What Ship and Division is the Cardinals Company?

Just a heads up ladies, your recruits may be in the same division, and they may end up in several different ones. Once they arrive at the RTC it will depend on where they are "standing,", how full the next division is, and some may end up in the 900 division, etc.
