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."

chrisinoregon: I think that 801 goes with the 900 division tonight through BStations. At least, that is what some ladies reported on this group. Have a wonderful safe trip!

We are packed and ready to leave our hometown today. Flight early in the morning out of Portland. We have so many details left to do before we leave! Really excited to be going. Packed gloves, scarves, hats too! We don't really have winter type clothing so this is a new adventure. We haven't gotten a call from our son in Div 801 if he is a sailor yet.

Calls from your new sailors should come mid-to-late afternoon GL time...keep the cell phone handy!
cricket: Have you received the I'm a Sailor call from your son? If not, he should be able to give you the password when he calls. He is the one who would have written it in the form letter. Sorry you all never received it...could it have gone to a gf, etc?

It's 11;30 here in KY, I have packed, been cleaning can't seem to wind down. We are leaving in the morn & I will more than likely be exhausted by the time we get there. I had all my family & friends start a prayer chain for all of the recruits tonight. Everyone have a safe trip to graduation! Can't believe it is finally here.
