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."

Well, he was moved to the best group with the best moms, girlfriends, and wives! Glad to have you with us!

My son is in this group.  I will be staying at the Quality Inn near the base.  If there are any meet and greets Thursday evening I would love to attend.  My problem is I am not renting a car- trip from England cost enough!  Anyway, if there is anyone near where I will be and would be willing to let me tag along I would very much appreciate it.  My son will be leaving for Monteray on Saturday for school for CTI.  Anybody else's son'daughter going there as well?

Thanks to all!

To Donna (crowe's mom):   My son is Dave, he's the Yeoman in his group. I will be there for PIR, arriving late Thursday afternoon.  Hope we can meet up and chat! 

Yes, My son, i would like to ask about PIR Fri. he just got moved into this group from RCU and hasn't had time to mail the info. do we need tickets and a gate pass. How do we get in he put our names down but that's all. Please help!

I sent you a friend request...please be my friend..LOL
You do not need tickets...they will have his list. You just tell them your son's name and your name and they will mark it off and let you in. He will call you on Tuesday for sure ;). Have your phone handy!
Did everyone get calls tonight? Not saying why as we cant..ha, ha, but get those phones on loud ringer for Tuesday!!

Yes! My son is Ship 12/Div150...so he's been training with div 149. The call yesterday was made only sweeter because it was his 19th birthday! 

Bravo Zula Div 149!
