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."

Comment by eighthundred88 on October 31, 2014 at 12:36pm: Hi everyone! Our son, Austin is in Ship 13 Div 043. He left for bootcamp Oct. 21st. We received "the box" and letter on Oct. 27th. He will be attending NF "A" School in Charleston, SC after PIR. Please bear with me as I am a newbie here and still maneuvering my ins and outs, but very glad I have found this :))

Comment by Nicole on October 31, 2014 at 12:16pm: My son is ship 11 Div 046

Comment by Margie on October 31, 2014 at 12:04pm: My daughter is Ship 11 Division 045

Comment by ellen0502 on October 31, 2014 at 11:11am: I am going to set up your division discussions later this evening, but I am looking for a ship number for divisions 045/046. If you have a SR is one of those divisions please let me know.

Comment by diannep on October 31, 2014 at 6:45am: *SR, not sailor....not quite yet!

Comment by diannep on October 31, 2014 at 6:44am: Good Morning!

Tabluckev: I believe so, but I know some already have a name of that person adopting their sailor. You may want to contact RTC Public Affairs for clarification: 847 688 2405 or....the info may be listed on the form you complete.

Comment by diannep on October 31, 2014 at 6:40am: Good Morning! ellen will be setting up your division discussion groups above very soon! Be sure to still stay on this main page in addition to getting to know one another in your discussion groups. We N4Moms veterans do not have the time to go through all of the discussion groups for your questions each day since we are on about 6-8 PIR groups at a time.

They will be at the top of the page, but she will post here when she has them set up.

Comment by CatMom509 on October 31, 2014 at 4:29am: Everyone,

Want you gals to ask your SRs to look out for info on the Adopt-a-Sailor program where families and community groups can adopt SRs only in 2 particular divisions out for Thanksgiving. This year your PIR group, 12/12/2014, will be eligible to be adopted out. Here's info on the program from the Boot Camp Moms group:

Adopt-A-Sailor Program: There are programs to Adopt recruits in the senior divisions for Thanksgiving and Christmas and to Adopt Sailors at GL for "A" School or training for Thanksgiving. These recruits and Sailors are adopted by a family member or one of several organizations the area. The Thanksgiving Adopt-A-Sailor program is for the next 2 TG's after Thanksgiving and Sailors who are in "A" School or training at the TSC. The Christmas Adopt-A-Sailor program is for 2 TG's after Christmas--it has been the 2 TG's following Christmas, but the RTC has also skipped the TG immediately after Christmas and adopted out the first 2 TG's in January. There will be information on the program, including what TG's are eligible, posted on the RTC’s fB page (U.S. Recruit Training Command) and you will get a form from your recruit if s/he is eligible for either program that you must return by a specified date if you plan to adopt him/her.
