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."

Comment by diannep on May 1, 2011 at 7:43am: Donna: The form letter can come anytime within the first 2 weeks of them leaving...or longer. Hopefully this is your week to receive it! Have you received the "box" yet?

Comment by Donna (Christopher's Mom) on May 1, 2011 at 7:38am: I'm kinda bummed. We have not re is Ed our form letter yet. I hope all is well.

Comment by diannep on May 1, 2011 at 7:32am: Patty... just just send a few so as not to draw attention to the envelope if it is too thick. That is what makes the SRs have to open them in front of the RDCs and the SRs could get razzed a little for the "bandaids from home." So just tuck a few into each letter you send so the letters are normal thickness.

Comment by Patty (Ship 2 Div 931) on April 30, 2011 at 11:49pm: Thanks JessicaB for the bandaid tip. They won't get in trouble for us sending them? I also noticed how neat my son's hand writing was even on the lines he wrote at the bottom of the letter!

Comment by notails3 on April 30, 2011 at 9:04pm: MamaCindy, I was surprised at my daughter's handwriting (or printing) when we received our "form" letter also. She commented that it's the Navy way -- big changes being made is right!

Comment by MamaCindy (MMW TM) on April 30, 2011 at 8:42pm: Got the official letter today! It was so good to get the few lines from him. Got tickled at how neat his writing was! Looks like the "change" is underway!

Comment by diannep on April 30, 2011 at 2:29pm: notails! Welcome! You will find alot of info on here. Please look through the discussion groups above too.

Comment by notails3 on April 30, 2011 at 1:29pm: So happy to see this group posted -- thank you! My daughter is in Ship 2 Division 931 with PIR 6/17. I look forward to all the comments from fellow Navy Moms/Dads/Spouses. You all help to keep my spirits up during this difficult time; it's a blessing to have this contact.
