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."

Divisions 089 and 090 are brother divisions and train together and will have Battle Stations-21 (BST) together, so look for others with loved ones in either division.  There will later be a discussion within PIR 01/29/2016 TG 12 for the two divisions.

Hello! My son is ship 06, div 089. Still no phone call or personal letter.

I know, I'm getting anxious. Really would love to hear his voice and make sure he's doing okay.

Your recruits had holiday routine on Sunday and were able to write a "real" letter for the first time. Look for a "real" letter this week. Wednesday was my day for mail in Missouri.

Both of you, check your My Page.

Good morning, hopefully we'll get letter or call this week. It's nice knowing our sons are working together. I was hoping to find someone from diverse 089/090.
Comment by Proud Navy mom Tracey on December 22, 2015 at 9:52am
Division sorry, darn phone.
Comment by Tina on December 22, 2015 at 12:52pm
Good morning! I got a call about 6:30 this morning. He sounded glad to get to call. Said he was doing ok and the food was pretty good. The phone connection was horrible but so glad to hear his voice and know he is ok.
Comment by Proud Navy mom Tracey on December 22, 2015 at 1:06pm
Hi, I got call also. He sounded good, he said is was ok and that bootcamp was harder than he thought. I tried not to cry when talking with him but couldn't stop the tears. I am so happy that your son called you finally also. :)
Comment by Tina on December 22, 2015 at 3:24pm

I'm so glad you got a call too!  He also called his grandparents, but they were still sleeping and didn't get the call, just a voicemail.  He also said that he mailed a letter out yesterday. This is the first time I have been away from my son for over a week, ever.  I'm very proud of him, but miss him terribly.
