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!

No, TxLadyJane:  You will be watching your "SAILOR"  PIR....No more SR then (Sailor Recruit). HOOYAH!
Comment by TxLadyJane(ET Nuke Mom) on March 3, 2011 at 3:15pm
Well its kinda funny, becasue although I am a safe driver I have even slowed down a bit more this last few weeks, and also not running to many errands and such, doing what I can in the least amount of trips, being careful as I want to SEE with my eyes, not my SPIRIT my SR PIR LOL, and when that happened last night, I was like "I will defend myself" don't stand in my way to watching my SR PIR.
Comment by Carol(ship12 Div.091) on March 3, 2011 at 3:15pm
TrueBlue I had our SR call and leave me a message on my cell phone the night he left so when I miss him so much I can't stand it, I play his message.  It is a sick feeling when you miss their call.  We have only received 2 calls and couldn't talk to him the 2nd call because the call was lost.  We, too, were sick about it.

Sorry to hear about your experience last night TxLadyJane but certainly happy to hear you know how to defend yourself. 
Comment by AnthonysMom(Ship 12 Div 096) on March 3, 2011 at 2:55pm
Does anyone else on here have a son in my division???
Comment by Redfly on March 3, 2011 at 2:51pm
TxLadyJane, I'm sorry to hear about your experience but I am so glad you are okay.
Comment by Jean H (ship 12 Div 091) on March 3, 2011 at 2:43pm
Which Div. was that?
Comment by TxLadyJane(ET Nuke Mom) on March 3, 2011 at 2:28pm
I heard from the other PIR group that one of the SR called his folks and said that the whole Division got recycled, but I can't confirm or deny this, only writing what I saw on another group.
Comment by diannep on March 3, 2011 at 2:27pm

WOW, TxLadyJane!  So glad you are ok!  I think you need to post on your property:  "Former Army woman on premises....enter at your own risk!"

Good for you to be ready for whoever it was, but so glad that you are ok~
