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."

So glad to hear that some of you have gotten calls. We are still waiting. Of course, it's killing us not hearing from her. I keep asking myself if her phone cards didn't work? Did they not activate? Was she too far down the line? Did she not pass a test and therefore not get to call? Anyone else not get a call? Hopefully will get a letter soon.

Got a call Saturday. We cried so hard we couldn't talk. It was great to finally here his voice. Still no letters though. He said this past Sunday was the first Sunday they could write, sooo maybe by Thursday I will have something in the mail. Book our flights today. The whole family is going. Can't wait to see him.

That makes me very nervous. My son is Ship 12 Div 349 and I have not received a form letter yet, but his recruiter found out he was graduating on the 13th and leaving for ASchool the 14th. I sure hope she was right. Because 7 of us have booked hotel and airfare for that weekend.
Hopefully will get my letter today.

My daughter is Ship 12 Div 349 graduates on Sept 13. Keep in mind if they don't pass everything or get injured that date can change.

Brysmom: If your SR is in Div 349, then definitely PIR 09/13....unless, as Tracy said, your SR is asmoed (setback) for any reason. Hopefully not!

We got our first letter from our SR today. Now I know why she didn't call last weekend. Nothing serious. Was great to hear from her. She is doing well, misses us & home & her dog. I would expect that. All in all she sounded very good and I feel much better hearing from her.
