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 Linda on June 11, 2011 at 9:48am: I know what you mean sunnyb What am I going to do now every morning I had my ritual sitting and writing that letter and then just waiting on the cute little mailman. and I forgot who was saying this before I think it was KC'smom...This sight is so awesome. I also have sat at my computer laughing through tears.That is the best way to feel. I love all of you!!! and good luck and much love to all of your SR's

Comment by pianomom1 (ship 11/div 203) on June 11, 2011 at 9:44am: @imajagtoo---remind me again, why are you concerned that your SR might be ASMO-ed? remember, i am in the same boat (no pun intended) as you. since we have gotten 2 calls and one of them was on a sunday afternoon, i figure that probably tomorrow we might hear what is going on. maybe not. i just pray that we know something one way or another before it's too late to cancel things....:(

Comment by tysmom on June 11, 2011 at 9:32am: I figured today was the last day to send a letter....3-5 days to get there....their focus will be on BS21 and getting ready for PIR and whatever else they are doing to complete bc. We amy get a letter when they get their orders.

Comment by Donna (Christopher's Mom) on June 11, 2011 at 8:19am: Hi Angel- we got our phone call at about the three week point. Nothing since. I guess we won't get one until the I'm a Sailor call.
Sunny- I heard to stop writing about a week out.

Comment by Patty (Ship 2 Div 931) on June 11, 2011 at 7:30am: Sunny, I am going to put my last letter in the mail today and hope he gets it by Thursday.

Comment by Patty (Ship 2 Div 931) on June 11, 2011 at 7:29am: Captain's Cup today! I'm so excited about PIR next week; I almost forgot!

Comment by imajagtoo.ship09div207 on June 11, 2011 at 7:27am: it's hard for me to get to sleep at night, getting down to the wire like this, ladies!!! would we have heard by now if our SR's were being ASMO'ed???

Comment by Sunnyb on June 11, 2011 at 7:12am: Does anyone know, when we should stop writing? Or maybe we are done? Gee, I'm not sure what I"m going to do with my morning coffee time now....

**I'm sure gonna miss that mail ladies sweet little beep beep. Was trying to think of a tiny little gift to put in the mail box for her.

Comment by Squeekerz on June 11, 2011 at 1:43am: I'm cheerin' you ladies and your SRs on! Wooooo :P

Comment by fa4airtran on June 10, 2011 at 11:53pm: Only one phone call here too. He always said his div was doing good things so I expected a reward call at some point but noooooooo. Oh well the 6/17 PIR countdown clock marches on.
