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."

Missyssailor - contact Lala (ship 06 Division 936) PIR 7-23! that is who makes them.  Yes my SR is going to Pensacola, FL for A school.  Is yours?

Yes he is. Aviation Ord. What is your SR's (soon to be) job?

He is AC - Air Traffic Controller. 
Towermom. What an exciting job that must be! Do I just leave a message on lala's wall telling her I want to order the ribbons or do I go to a website?
Missyssailor- i invited her to be a friend and she send me a message in my inbox - or you can give her you email address and she will send the information to you.
So who's planning to attend the meet & greet?
Ering NC - We are driving from New York so I am not sure exactly what time we will be there Wednesday night.  When and where is at again?  I think I saw something that it was at 6pm?  I think we will arrive around 7pm but it all depends on traffic and how many times we have to stop!
Did anyone else try to win us a picture on FB today??  I did and I had the correct answer but was about 2 seconds and 20 answers too late! :(  I can't believe people are that fast!!  I posted the answer 2 seconds after they posted the question and I was already too late...WAY too late!  Oh well, there's always next week!!
I was out golfing so I didn't get too - I will be trying next Tuesday though.  I want to see pictures of our SR's!  I am hoping they got letters from home!! I am waiting anxiously by the mailbox for mine!!  Last week I received his letter Thursday. :)
I want to see pictures, too!!  That's one good thing about this DIV though, is that we should see pics on FB before others get to.  I stalked the mailbox today-lol!  It was terrible!  But last week mine came on Wednesday, soooo tomorrow I'll be MUCH worse!  I HOPE it comes tomorrow because starting Thursday I'll be back in class, from 8-4, for my last week and a half before I graduate (college, not high school :) ).  I passed one of my boards on Saturday and I got so sad because he was the first person I wanted to tell and I couldn't :(. I guess a letter will have to suffice.  Let's pray for more letters this week!!! 
Well let me be the first SR mom to say congratulatins on passing one of your boards on Saturday.  I know your SR is very proud and had the feeling you passed.  Keep up the good work. Ughh I am jealous you received your letters on Wednesday, maybe today I will get it but last week we received it on Thursday.  Have a great week and keep us posted if you get a letter.  :)
Has anyone else seen the post about the Division TShirts?  I can't remember where I saw it and was wondering where to purchase them?  They say they don't wear them to the graduation but the night of meet and greet.
