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."

I am definitely going to the PIR

So exicited to see our sailors in the Div 056 pic!!!

 

 

Where is the picture located.  I would love to see it and look for my son.

Let me know if you have not found the pictures.
The pics are located on the RTC Facebook page and here under Groups PIR 02/03/2012 TG 11.
Thank you. It was so good seeing my son. I had looked at the other pictures but must have skipped over these.

any phone calls yet?

No calls yet. I was really hoping for one on Christmas.

No calls yet - the picture was a great surprise and hopefully more letters soon! I know they are very busy - I try to remain patient but I would love to hear his voice too!

No call but I loved the 055 056 picture too our SR son had a big smile. Everyone was over and got to see his picture on Christmas.

Our Marine left at 2 am so it's real quite around here now.

I'm hoping I get more letters tomorrow from Great Lakes.  Hope we all do.

 

I got my first phone call from My Robby today! It was very emotional but I was so glad!

I received  my first phone call today also, I was so surprised to hear, "Mom"?  Definitely emotional but he sounded good and upbeat said he wasn't doing too bad and to keep the letters coming!  I hope you all heard from your sailor today, too!
