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."

Wishing all Mom's a Mother's Day to remember, be it in a note sent, flowers delivered, or just the heart strings tugging we have reason to honored. Look where and what our kids are doing!
Only good thoughts today/tonight for all those in BS and those yet to be Sailors.
^5's to all of them!

When the "I'm a sailor" call comes in how many minutes do they roughly get? And can they call more than one person to tell them?

I know that today you are missing your soon to be Sailors very much. And I wanted to show you all how much I care so I wrote a poem to you from your Sailor. If your Sailor could call maybe this is what he or she would say. I hope you enjoy it and have a wonderful Mother's day.Love to you all, LaLa (Lora)
Hi Mom, please try not to worry 'cause
I'm doing really well,
Even though I miss youAnd there’s stories I’d love to tell!
I’m laying here in my berth
On a ship that does not sail
Thinking of you on this special day
I hope you are doing swell!.It’s been a little stressful here
The Commanders love to yell
But, it’s not as bad as you may have thought
It’s not a living hell!Memories get me through the days
Oh, your cookies I can almost smell,
But the RDC’s would eat them up so,
Don’t send them in the mail!It won’t be long until I see you
So please try not to dwell
I’ve really come a long way here
I’m emerging from my shell!I’ll be dressed in white at PIR
To boot camp I’ll say farewell,
My time with you will be well spent
Don’t forget to bring my cell!I miss you!
I love you!
Happy Mother’s Day!!!
Love, from your soon to be Sailor

Happy Mom's Day to everyone! Thoughts and prayers go out to everyone who is doing Battlestations over the next few days---including my SR 7/171. Hope the other div. get a Moms day phone call today. I know it may not happen, but we can all hope. We ALL know that our SR are calling us in their hearts and minds even though they may not be able to used the phone
