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 Matt'smom! Yes, my son, Cody, is in this same division. I'm also new to this forum thing and am almost desperate to connnect with other moms. Have you heard from your son yet? We haven't heard anything since we received the division/graduation information, and I'm NOT handling this lack of contact thing very well. :)
I have heard that this is the performing div? Anyone know? I got my letter yesterday and was so happy:) Matt is doing well but he said that it is Hell there. He did say he has not gotten any of my letters and I have mailed him one everyday. Matt said it would be nice to hear from me so I hope he gets all my letters soon. He said even though it is hard he is glad he joined the Navy. He said he has made some really great friends that he will have the rest of his life. That was great to hear. Keep me informed if any moms in this div hears anything. It is always nice to get information.
Mattsmom, Lukesmom started a group for all of us w/sons/daughters in ship 2/div 903.

The 900 divisions are performing division. My Matt didn't say anything in his letter about what he will be doing in the division.
Sounds like several moms got phone calls Yea. I hope my Matt calls soon it would be so nice to hear from him.
