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 Everybody! I received my letter yesterday! Ship 13 Div 314 so proud of him, but still shedding tears!! LOL

It's ok, you have lots of support here :) Friend me if you would like, I'm happy to help and support whenever i can :)
Hugs,
Jane

Thanks Jane! I can use all the support that I can get! :-)

Hey your welcome! :)
This is soooooo awesome! Not my SR of course but congratulations to all of them! :)
Here is the link (... Why are they in dress blues in August I wonder???)

http://www.bootcamp.navy.mil/honor_grads.asp

I saw that earlier on RTC's Facebook page. I wondered if it was just a stock picture that they put with the information. Maybe these aren't the actual SRs? IDK..

I just saw somewhere that they should be in dress whites until they switch to the winter dress blues the first week in October. So more than likely our Sept. 28th SR's will be in white.

Hopefully the calls will start tomorrow... Would love to hear from him...

Yes!  My son is on Ship 13 Div 314!  Sent out my first letter!

My 7yo daughter and I made cards last night to send out to SR's. PM me if you'd like us to send one to yours too! We're going to continue this project through boot camp. As a side note, My Girl Scout troop and I coordinate a service project where our city Girl Scouts provide cards for my friend who is a Santa and he passes them out at American lakes Veterans hospital at Christmas time, we're also providing cards to Wounded Warriors projects.

My son is in Ship 13 Div 313. We are from Phx, AZ. Can't wait until they earn a phone call!

Has anyone got a letter from their sailor?
