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."

Ship 04/ Div 807

Anyone else have an SR in this division? I am patiently waiting for my letter. You should also join the forum on the RTC facebook for this division.

I hope they realize how much we miss them!!! LOL. I can't believe two weeks has already passed. It feels like yesterday we were saying goodbye to them. I'm so excited to see them again, but so sad to say Goodbye again :(

But at least we will be able to talk to them!!! I am moving to FL so I am very excited for that!!!! They get weekends off usually during training and stuff it's not as hard and they have so much training to get through it will be a couple of years before they're stationed and deployed at least and we will be well prepared for that!

Ok....I have a question. i just received my first letter with my son's ship and division as 04-809? Is there even an 809? His pir date- 3/16. I ask this because above listed divisions are 807-808. Does anyone out there have this 809? Thanks!
