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."

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"

Does anyone know how many guests (max) our Sailors will be allowed to have at PIR?  3 or 4?

Comment by mariekg on April 18, 2014 at 11:25am

My son did sneak in during his quick call to me that the guys in his division are pulling together...that's nice to know!

Comment by mariekg on April 18, 2014 at 11:23am

cindyb_  Glad you got to hear from your son!  Maybe my son is not far away and your son's habits take hold of my son!!!   LOL

Comment by cindyb on April 18, 2014 at 11:16am

Comment by cindyb on April 18, 2014 at 11:14am

Sweet picture Lala! =) Very adorable! 
Is anyone else in Ship 13 DIV 184?

Comment by mariekg on April 18, 2014 at 11:08am

Ladies,

WOW.   I am so very happy for those who got letters!!  At least we can get an update at large on the rest of the team :)   I didn't expect much from my SR as I don't believe he has held a pen/pencil since he was seven  :)  Always got by with charm I suppose ...It is good to hear the food is edible although I think my son would eat dirt if he was hungry.  Reading that word document on the weekly routine yesterday it looks like BC week 3 is not so bad but week 4 is "hell week" so we may want to really pour on the "you can do this" next weekend  :)  Thanks for the posts ...you ladies of the Navy View are better than a hot cup of coffee in the morning!
