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."

@brandon'sgirl  Have you joined the facebook group for our PIR date?  https://www.facebook.com/groups/311622992201384/   There seems to be a lot of communication on that....lots sharing stories from letters they have received...kinda helps putting all of the letters together to get a bigger picture!  Hang in there ONLY 20 days to go!

Comment by navyfriend11-ship7div63 on January 21, 2012 at 10:11pm

Anytime. It's driving me crazy too. I can't imagine having a boyfriend there. I feel your pain. It's a tough commitment but one of honor and deep love!!

Comment by brandon'sgirl on January 21, 2012 at 10:01pm

Thank you navyfriend! 

Comment by navyfriend11-ship7div63 on January 21, 2012 at 9:57pm

Brandon's girl- if it helps, my SR friend hasn't wrote to me for over 3 weeks. I too feel discouraged and down. But you are certainly not alone!!! Not at all!

Comment by brandon'sgirl on January 21, 2012 at 9:47pm

I feel so discouraged and I am so scared that some of my sadness will leak out in my letters to my SR, and I do not want to discourage him at all, but I hate feeling like I am going through this alone! Any suggestions? I'm so sad today with little information, and few letters to go on.

Comment by Lala Ribbon Queen PIR Ribbons on January 21, 2012 at 8:42pm

Just a heads up on the ribbon and scarf orders. I am working on the orders for your PIR group and I am shipping them daily as I get them finished (except Sundays) Some of you have already received your order. I will have them all finished and in your hands in plenty of time for PIR. It takes some time to complete each order with all the items being hand made by me. If you have any questions please let me know. Please let me know when they arrive. If you have not sent your payment or paid through PayPal  please do that ASAP. I still have several orders that I have not received payment for. Thanks so much for your order and feel free to send me a message on this site or an email to: uniquememorymakers@yahoo.com if you have any questions or would like to place an order.  I hope you all get awesome calls and letters this week. :-)

Comment by FireTeamLeaderWife aka FTLW on January 21, 2012 at 8:37pm

You are very welcome!

Comment by Oceans3 on January 21, 2012 at 8:30pm

ProudNavyMom yes, I am having a hard time with the whole spending time with the ex's side of the family as well.  With such limited time, I am just going to focus on my daughter and not those around me, his whole family lives in Chicago so they will all be with us the whole day. :(

Thank you so much FTLW  as always you are amazing and I appreciate your help very much!
