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."

LOL my son said he dont like it much actually he said it sucks here....But as the weeks go on it will get better I am sure..I just made Hotel reservations...ready to see my son...

Comment by Lynne on September 20, 2010 at 9:47pm: I am going to share a deep dark secret....just kidding....I love Dancing With the Stars....lol

Comment by Lynne on September 20, 2010 at 9:24pm: Wow Congrats to B2B for being the first person to muster in for one of the divisions. She has a son in DIV 363...who will be next...step up folks...

Comment by Lynne on September 20, 2010 at 9:21pm: Marite I hope you will be there in time for the meet and greet at anastasias from 6 to 8 PM...the folks from this group that can will be getting together...

Comment by Mom(Div363-PIR11/5) on September 20, 2010 at 9:20pm: I've had no problem with hotel or air tickets, but transportation to the area of GL seems to be daunting. Is car rental the way to go? It seems you have to do both train and bus and it would take 2 hours. We're coming in Thursday night so we'd like to get there fast!

Comment by Lynne on September 20, 2010 at 9:01pm: Hi all...I am putting up discussion groups so you can sign in to your division. Our PIR group is going to be big and everyone is asking who else is in my division and I tried making lists and we are growing so fast and I couldn't remember who I had sent messages to and decided this was easiest...so bear with me till I get it done..but feel free to start mustering in!!
When I started this process 15 minutes ago we had 59 members...now we have 63 so wow we are growing so fast!! I envy you all who are in divisions 363 and 364, I haven't heard from my son since the 3rd except for that form letter which I got last Thursday. I really miss him!! Glad i have this to keep me busy!!

Comment by Kathy on September 20, 2010 at 8:32pm: Hello, got my son's form letter today. He is ship 7 div 364 grad date 11/5.
so glad to finally get something. he did write us a short note at the end of the letter. said he is doing good and having fun.

Comment by Mom(Div363-PIR11/5) on September 20, 2010 at 8:32pm: KatPre1, Stevo'sMom & others: My son is in Ship 7, Div 363, also! I got the letter today and I'm so happy! He sounds upbeat!
