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."

for
N4M's Community Guidelines
and
OPSEC.

~OPSEC OPerational SECurity, is always of the utmost importance.

~N4M’s also has Community Guidelines just like any other social media.

~Please take the time to read the OPSEC and N4M’s Community Guidelines.

~A quick note here, from the N4M’s CG’s:

• Don’t Jeopardize the Safety of Our Sailors: Remember OPSEC (Operational Security) (Don’t Sink Ships With Loose Lips) This site and all content posted on it are viewable to everyone on the Internet. This doesn’t mean you can’t share things about your Sailor – but too many details can put Sailors in harm’s way. The following are examples of red flags and should not be shared within this community either by posting or sending via a Group message:

• Sailors’ last names. This includes your username if you share the same last name as your son or daughter.

Some Suggestions:

~If your last name is different from your Recruits it is still not recommended for you to use in your username for your own personal security. This is your option. It is also not a good idea to use an email address as your username for personal security reasons.

~First Names and pictures of your Recruit are allowed but remember, everyone can see it and someone can easily match them up with their "mom". So you might want to consider changing your profile picture to not include your Recruit at least for the duration of BC. Again, your option

~It is also a good idea to make your settings for your Profile Page "viewable only to your friends"

Dez, I'm feeling your struggle. My wife is in 928 and I thought the same thing with me being in the military.
Comment by Dez on April 16, 2014 at 10:09am
Hello everyone I'm new to the group..... I'm a 10 year navy vet who has a girlfriend in div 179 .... I thought that I would be ok during this boot camp time because I been through it before but truth is I'm going nuts on the outside without her

Comment by LeanneProudNavyMomDiv177 on April 16, 2014 at 8:55am

seaboldb4..Be encouraged. My son is in Div 177 brother to 178. He seems to be doing great. I only had a 5 min phone call from him as he has been calling his friend that just graduated from BC to see what to expect next. LOL Just send him a letter and include a calling card and write your phone number on there. My SR called me on a Saturday afternoon. I am sure he will call you!! :)
