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."

Ok sweet ladies of 051. Does anyone know how to set a picture up here? I would love to have our div pic from fb on here for us to save. It will get lost down below.
I believe this would have to be done by you, Cat. Is there any option for you edit your first entry creating the discussion? If so, that when you could insert the picture. Or, do what I did and create a "Group" for your Div.

Hi, I'm new here. My son is in S07/Div051. And I'm missing him something awful! Glad to know I'm not alone...

I just got off the phone with my son! He is doing much better than I thought he would. My heart is soaring! I'm so happy to hear he is doing good!

Cindy!  So glad you got to talk to him - I have heard from my son Joe a couple times - mostly because he needed some additional information for his security clearance - but the fact that I heard from him was so awesome!  I missed his call tonight - I was at work and on the phone couldn't get to my cell phone to answer it in time... Each time that I have spoken to him - he sounds stronger and stronger - so it is nice to know he is doing well!

Hi - I just joined this group - and my son is in this division! 

Is anybody else in this group from a military family?

My husband talked to our son tonight, too!  I was at work and missed it.  I'm glad he could talk to his dad.  Must mean a lot to the recruits to speak to someone they know, after all this time!   My husband said he sounded good, too!  I'm so glad he was able to call! 

I got the call also!!! He sounds great. More confident and also tired. We spoke for 20 minutes and had him on speaker with my husband, daughter and my mother. It was awesome!!!!

 

Samantha and Cindy, join my group SHIP 07 DIV 051 PIR 1/21/2011. You can find it up top when you click on the group tab and sort by latest. It will probably be on page 2 or 3.
