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."

We received our form letter Thursday and was very excited to get it.  Saying a prayer and keeping my fingers crossed for the March 30th graduation.

My SR (now an SN) from 12/100 called us this afternoon to tell us that, HE IS A SAILOR!!!!!!!!  He said about half of Division 100 will be joining him in San Antonio for HM A-School.  He will be leaving about 24 hours earlier than we hoped for.  Can't wait to see him on Friday.  We plan to make the best of the few, short, hours we'll have with him.

UNITED STATES SAILORS.......BEYOND PROUD!!!!!!!!!!!!! See You All At PIR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My boyfriend is now a Sailor!!! I am so proud of him and all the other men and women :) The phone rang today during my 3rd period class and when I saw it was coming from Chicago, IL I quickly stepped out of class and teared up as soon as I heard his voice... Just what I needed today to keep my going and strong.  Sounded so tired and said that several of the guys are sick... but that they are all so ready to graduate!  Are any of your sons going to Virginia for A school?

Wishing you all a great week!

Hello!  Just wanted to say a big Congrats to all the Sailors in 12/100!  I am only sorry to have learned about this website 2 days before PIR.  It was great to meet some of "Grandpa's" shipmates!  Now on to the next adventure!  Looking forward to being able to have more phone time with my Husband and I couldn't be more Proud of my Sailor!
