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."

Good Sunday morning,
I was surprised to read that several moms had their ship/division information.
I thought the processing days were at least 3-5 days. My son left on 24th as well.
I didn't think the recruiters had any of that information! Oh well, hoping to get my box next week!! Praying for our FS!
Have a blessed Sunday! -

Yes I was surprised also to see moms had information. I called my daughters recruiter, but he was out of the office. He said he did have information and would send it to me Monday. Can hardly wait to send my letters off. Good luck to everyone.

brojo and kjs, I was so surprised when the recruiter called too. But guess I still need to wait for the official letter. But I did mail one off...So glad I found this website. It has been very helpful. Let us all know when you get the info...Are either of you able to go to the graduation?
