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."

He was in the close up shot and they were in their cammys. He was dead center of the picture. There were like 6 or 7 kids you can see their faces perfectly. You will see my picture/comment confirming it is Division 139 next to the photo!

Just printed the gate pass for PIR next friday. Got an email regarding when they would be doing Battlestation 21, so my phone will be on and ready for a phone call. Getting so excited now, can't wait for the time to pass. My son has started sending us letters twice a week now and it totally makes our day. But we have a rule, my husband and I have to read them together. We have been writing him daily with news and encouragement.
