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 Lynne on September 13, 2010 at 3:50pm: Have you gotten the form letter yet, because I think that comes a full week before any kind of other letter....they will get mail from us before we see anything from then we have at least one week maybe two until we hear from them...they might have gotten to fill out that form letter yesterday...today has been hard for me for some reason...I decided to go on a big diet and change my life style, conquer my chronic pain while my son is gone and today it just all seems overwhelming..I know what I am going through is so much less than what they are...but I just want to hear the sound of this voice

Comment by Lynne on September 13, 2010 at 3:47pm: I hear you Traya...that is how I feel today

Comment by Trayalovesjohn on September 13, 2010 at 3:41pm: They say some days are harder then others, I so shouldn't have gotten out of bed today. I can't believe its only been 9 days, I miss him like crazy. Just ran to the mailbox, no letter. Maybe they got to write us yesterday, gosh that would be awesome.

Comment by Lala Ribbon Queen PIR Ribbons on September 13, 2010 at 12:03pm: Hi everyone, we are still not 100% sure if my daughters fiance is in this PIR group or Oct 29th, my daughter wants to go to PIR but she will be in c-school by then and doesn't know if she will be able to go. We do know that she will be coming home on leave for 10 days in less than 2 weeks. We are so excited to have her coming home for the first time after boot camp. :) Hopefully we will know soon when her fiance will have PIR. Now I have to get back to making PIR ribbons for some other groups. I hope everyone has a great Monday. Maybe our form letter will arrive this week.
