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 Joeysmom, I am plantlady and my SR daughter is in ship 11 div 15. Just this morning I figured out the difference between PIR comments and these division discussion boards. I too placed a "hello" message on my daughters 11/15 board, but no replies yet so I thought I'd reach out to another mom from the same PIR group. I decided to do something every day to support my SR and post a comment on the PIR page. Yesterday I purchased her PIR graduation gift. This focus seems to make me feel better. Today I constructed and printed mailing labels to give our family members to make it easier for everyone to send my SR letters. The day before that I made room reservations at Navy Lodge for her PIR graduation. Perhaps you may wish to join me in "one day...one SR support act". Love going your way.
