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."

Comment by BROCKSMOM on December 8, 2010 at 5:36pm: Thanks Lynne for the info. I do appreciate it.

Comment by ChrisNukeEMmom on December 8, 2010 at 5:31pm: Hi Penny, yes my son's initial letter said his PIR was the 21st. Now I guess it's the 28th so I'll be joining you counting down the days until I get to see his face again! I love, love, love the clock!! Thanks to whoever did it!
Lynne, concerning the Christmas cards - do you recommend we ask our recruit how many are in his division and then the group of moms in that division divide them up, pick a day and send out x # of cards all addressed to our recruit and he passes them out? Also, I read somewhere on this site about being able to send gift cards. Do you know anything about that?

Comment by Kathy Ship 11 Div 057 on December 8, 2010 at 5:28pm: THANK YOU AlisahNicole! I tried but I am technically challenged ;-)

Comment by SDPam on December 8, 2010 at 5:26pm: Thanks for the count down clock - love it too!!!

Comment by Penny_Nuke_MM2_NimitzNuke on December 8, 2010 at 4:52pm: I LOVE IT !!!

Comment by AlishaNicole SHP11DIV54 on December 8, 2010 at 4:47pm: Got our countdown clock up and running!!!

Comment by Penny_Nuke_MM2_NimitzNuke on December 8, 2010 at 3:28pm: I see that Tricia and Jill both have their sailors in the same ship and division - YAY ... nice for the two of you. Take time to get to know each other; this is a very safe place to laugh and cry and make new friends. If you like, I even suggest sharing email addresses with each other to keep contact and share other items of interest. There are a few of us ladies on here that are in the same ship and division and we are having the time of our lives getting to know each other.

Comment by Penny_Nuke_MM2_NimitzNuke on December 8, 2010 at 3:26pm: Hey Jill and smith - my son arrived there on 11/24 and is also going on to Goose Creek. Looks like while they may not be in the same division, smith and my son are both in ship 11. Jill - I see your son is in div 910 - what is their specialty to be in the 900 divisions? Just curious.

Still waiting for our very first letter - I know my son was hoping to volunteer or be chosen to be the RCPO but have no idea if that happened or not.

So glad to have both of you here and part of the future Nuke program over in Goose Creek. Jill, how nice to be having your son close to home. We are from Washington State - a VERY long way from home.
