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."

Hi, I see this is titled ship 11 div 365, but the intro says ship 7 div 364? Can you help? I am trying find my ship?
Hey Holly - Great catch! I was doing a copy/paste with the text when I set these discussions up. I will fix it now.
Oh, that is so sweet of you setting them up for us. Last year I set up ours and then they wanted me to add all this fun stuff and I couldn't figure out how. I felt so bad. I ended up handing it over to another mom to do all the cool stuff. LOL. Thanks for adding this. I have found two other moms in this ship, I will let them know that you have helped us get going. :0)
Hi Diana,

Thank you for setting this up. I noticed that it was somewhat different than the one we had last year, so I hope you don't mind I copied that one. We could add and subtract and move stuff, her is the one from my other son last years group... http://www.navyformoms.com/group/ship14div389 I went ahead copied that one.
Hi Holly -

Please do what you want with this! This isn't for me, it's for all of us and whatever works is perfect! Feel free to run wild!!!! Ship 11 Div 365 is officially yours! :-)
