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."

Thank you!  We will be traveling next Wednesday and coming home Sunday. Then the following week we leave on Thursday to head to PIR!!!

Thank you so much and the same for all the other Families. We are leaving Friday for a 3000 mile drive so all the prayers are needed.

Well we are on the road, good news is it's only 2000 miles not 3000. I can't wait to meet everyone in Great Lakes! Have a great day Ladies. I will try to check in from time to time.

Good Evening ladies!! I got a letter from my daughter today.  She sent me a list of recruits in Ship 09/Div. 015 that are not receiving mail & one in particular that is needing support.  She only sent last names, but I am going to send them letters anyway.  Message me if you would like the list, I can't imagine letting these kids go any longer without knowing that someone is proud of them & wishing them the best.

Where are all the div 015 moms at?  Ya'll have been awful quiet lately!!

I know.  I've thinking the same thing.....

i can only check stuff at night.  i love to read all the posts when i finally get on the site!!
