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 all!  I thought this might be a good way for us to connect!  So took the advice of some other moms.  Hopefully we can get information on when we start receiving calls and letters and other info!

Hi SueM,

My son is on Ship 12, Div. 095 and so is Mollie's and AlisonSailorMom's.  Nice to meet you.

Comment by Sue M (SHIP 12 DIV 095) on January 21, 2011 at 7:24pm
Same here, glad to meet all of you..... And I feel relieved just knowing "some" info.
Comment by LWEatonNC (AWF Oceana) on January 21, 2011 at 7:20pm

I'm glad to meet you all;  and relieved to finally know when his graduation date is!

Comment by LWEatonNC (AWF Oceana) on January 21, 2011 at 7:13pm

Lala, he said that he and ten others were put in that division because they didn't need any swimming training.  Believe me, he doesn't play or sing anything other than an iPod.  He is AW.  Maybe he will get to do those things, but he says while they practice, the ten of them clean.

 

Thanks, Lala, I'll do just that.

amac/mom thanks!

Div 917 is a preforming division, make sure in the next letter you write to ask if they are in the choir, band, drill team, flag corp etc. Some will also be greeters and some will be body snatchers at PIR. My sailor was in the choir. Feel free to check out. My info on my page and send me a friend request. I am happy to help in any way I can.

Is there anyone on Ship 12 Div 095? Got the form letter today........
Comment by Lia (Navy Wife) on January 21, 2011 at 6:40pm
I got my first letter from my fiancé yesterday, but I don't think the form letter has come yet. He was able to write both me and his mom, but I'm not sure what day it was. He is also Ship 02 Div 917, and yes, they are graduating on 3/11/11.
Comment by amacs/mom on January 21, 2011 at 6:36pm
LWEatonNC: I rec my son's form letter to day and he is the same division. This is the expected grad date.
Comment by LWEatonNC (AWF Oceana) on January 21, 2011 at 6:12pm

I got a letter from my nephew today;  it was written Sunday;  he is Ship 02 Div 917, Rueben James.
