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"

Good morning everyone :)

Comment by diannep on July 23, 2014 at 11:00pm

Sierrascrapper:  You can PM someone and ask for the last names of SRs, but no last names can be be posted publicly on this site.  You can use iintials on the main page here if looking for family of another SR.  For example, "Does anyone have a SR with the initials CW from Seattle?  If so, please friend request/message me."  That is allowed.

MBARECCI:  Most likely, they will fly out Sat, but it is possible it won't be until Sun.  So....try and stay until at least Sunday.  Not likely that it will be Labor Day that they will fly out.

Comment by debnavysailormom on July 23, 2014 at 9:24pm

My son graduates PIR 8-29 ship 14 div 269 and he goes to San Antonio- I think they fly out Sat AM

Comment by Sierrascrapper (ETN2) on July 23, 2014 at 9:22pm
I'm so glad so many of us got letters today. If you didn't, hang tight, I bet you will get one tomorrow or Fri.

MsTink...the letter closure is the BEST isn't it? My son said he actually likes his new glasses over his old ones.
Comment by MBARECCI Ship 13 Div 265 on July 23, 2014 at 9:12pm

Comment by Mstink Ship 14 Div 269 on July 23, 2014 at 8:58pm
