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."

Hi, thought I would join in with you guys. I'm part of this group but my daugher is in a different ship and division, ship 11 div 121. I'm surprised there aren't more people part of the ship 11 div 121 discussion, so far there are only two. Maybe as more people start receiving their letters we'll get more participation, I hope so! I also mentioned in my letter to my daughter to mention N4M's to her friends, too. If anyone has any suggestions on how to get the word out I'd love to hear it :) I'm also bummed out I didn't receive the letter either :( I guess I was hoping it would come as fast as the box did, no suck luck! I'm slowly starting to learn patience...... My daughter is signed up to be a hospital corpsman, too!

Hi Jajajo 0 you should start a group for 11/121! I'll bet people are just waiting for someone to do it. Also, it might be in the 4/1 PIR. I know 120 is. We really don't know if we PIR on the 1st or the 8th - just guessing.
The letter will come - remember - the Pony Express takes time..........

Yeah no kidding about the Pony Express...ha ha! I did start a discussion with the ship and div under the 4/1 and 4/8 PIR groups and Lil's mom started a group also. We'll just have to wait and see. I like your profile pic very unique :)
