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 amsred2 (Ship 12, Div 102) on January 26, 2011 at 7:38pm: Just a question...I got the form letter that says son's PIR is 3-11. His division is 102 and just got there. I have read that his div is getting "pushed" thorough. Is this just rumor, or could his PIR change?

Comment by amsred2 (Ship 12, Div 102) on January 26, 2011 at 7:35pm: Kelly, My sons PIR is 3-11 and he is also going to nuke school in SC. I had thought to save the money and just visit him in SC but i cant resist...I will eat the cost to see him graduate AND visit in SC this summer. I am also in SoCal, maybe over the course of the next two years we can keep in touch and, if necessary make a road trip to SC.

Comment by Carol(ship12 Div.091) on January 26, 2011 at 7:33pm: Hi Kelly-Matt's Mom, we are from So. Cal. also and our SRs were probably in San Diego at the same time and shipped out in the same group 1/6. In fact we took 2 of the recruits to dinner with us. It is amazing how quickly they bond and make friends. Would love to stay in touch.

Comment by frandrea<3 Ship 12.Div 93 on January 26, 2011 at 7:09pm: Oh and question! In anyone's letters did the SR's say they had received your letters?

Comment by frandrea<3 Ship 12.Div 93 on January 26, 2011 at 7:03pm: Something to make everyone smile:

I (like so many of you) have my phone glued to by "backside" ;) I don't get a lot of calls except for from my mom. So the phone has rung every couple of days and I rush to pick it up-I'm so excited I literally feel like my heart is going to explode right out of my chest...and it's my parents. Haha! So the last time my mom called I picked up the phone and said, "MOM! YOU HAVE TO QUIT CALLING, I'M GOING TO GO INTO CARDIAC ARREST IF THIS HAPPENS ONE MORE TIME!" :) Luckily she takes it all in stride.

I think for us Floridians, the letters will come in tomorrow! Me and my mother in law are just losing our minds together waiting on something! We're both up until 5 and 7 a.m. every day and we both look like sleepless wrecks...can't wait to hear from my <3

Comment by Jean H (ship 12 Div 091) on January 26, 2011 at 5:24pm: Congrats to JaredJen and Kelly! A very Happy birthday to Matt.

Comment by JaredJen (Seth) on January 26, 2011 at 5:20pm: We got a letter!!!!! So excited. He sounds really well. Seem to be excited to be in the blue camis. My day has been made!

Comment by Kelly-Nuke'sMom on January 26, 2011 at 5:20pm: Got my first letters today! On his birthday so special. He says he will be a grad and go and that he will leave on Saturday and that we shouldn't even come to PIR because it will be so expensive. We are in Southern CA. I will still go of course. I couldn't miss it no matter what the cost. I do wonder if anyone knows what to expect since he is a grad & go. He is going to SC for nuke school. It's gonna be a long month of Feb. wait I just thought of something Feb is the shourtest month. =)

Comment by Mollie (Ship 12 DIV 095) on January 26, 2011 at 4:16pm: Ashlove and Valerie, Congratulations! I imagine that you guys are probably on Cloud 9 right now. I'm still waiting patiently (or maybe impatiently) for a letter. Thanks for sharing your good news!

Comment by YMM (Ship 12 Div 98) on January 26, 2011 at 4:09pm: ashlove and Valarie, Wow!!!! Three letters!!! Am I ever envious. Nothing yet from my son. Hopefully, one will come tomorrow.
