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."

Ok my hopes are up mail comes in about 30 minutes.....Hurry up mailman!!!

 

We received the form letter about week 3 (son arrived 8/10).  We just received our 1st letter last Thursday, 9/15 and he said they were finally given 25 minutes for letter writing. (div. 333)
Woooo hoooo got 4 letters today! She fooled me and stuffed 3 letters into one envelope :)  she sounds great, very happy staying strong. Passed swim test loves her bunk mate and super excited about the future!!! I am so happy for her!
yay everyones getting letters and theyre all doing great :) so good to hear. all smiles!!!! hope everyones doing great. i received 2 letters today :)
whose ready to get this week started? i know this girl is!! 4 weeks and counting ladies.. 31 days and a wake up. keep those letters going and hope for a phone call soon :) gooo 334!!!!

Exactly what I was thinking!!!!  My daughter is in Div 333 she says that 334 has some cool RDC's. Just thought I would let you know. She said her RDC's are not too bad but 334's are better. 

 

And yes lets hope for phone calls :)

How many RDC's are there? One for 333 and one for 334? My recruit has a 'she' RDC...and says she's harder than others...I just think everyone thinks the grass is greener on the other side....

im not sure how many they have but my SR said that its really easy as long as you listen and there are a lot of ppl that dont take it serious enough but he likes it as a whole and is head of the division. it has a lot of responsibilities but also a lot of perks. but he sounds amazing so their RDCs must not be too rough but he hasnt mentioned anything
My SR is really enjoying it sounds great! She does not have a job but says that is OK really does not want to be responsible it the division screws up. She did say the RDC's  do not know her name yet and that is a good thing.
I am not sure how many RDC's but I do know there is more than one for each division. My daughter is not a grass is greener type of girl.  334 is a brother division so they take orders from both division RDC's .
ohk so if everyone would want to see a pic of their recruit there is 2 contest on the RTC facebook page.. mix up monday and trivia tuesday. its really fun but you have to be careful on how you write about your SR.. just like on here. but if everyone plays maybe we can have a chance on seeing our  loved one. just an idea

Sounds fun!!!! I looked at this last night and there a very specific guidlines! So read it carefully and maybe we can get our division pic up!!!
