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 siscarrie on January 26, 2010 at 12:48pm: The ladies i asked said 2-3 weeks before they start receiving mail. or the mail could have crossed each other. Maybe thats what happened. They said the mail is really slow. So maybe they got alot at one time, cause i have been sending alot to my son.

Comment by siscarrie on January 26, 2010 at 12:41pm: Hey Christie, I am feeling the same way, maybe if you get on chat they can help. There are alot of women that has been through all of this. I will get on there now and see what they say, write you back.

Comment by mama B on January 26, 2010 at 8:16am: BTW I just LOVE the count down clock at the top of this page! Everyday when I write to BJ I include his time left in my cards!

Comment by mama B on January 26, 2010 at 8:15am: NicksMom
Yes, BJ being so close in school helps me to feel better.
This is our families first military experience, it is all new. I can't tell you how glad I am I found this sight! It is such a blessing.
Thank you ladies!

Guess it's hard for everyone the first few weeks....so proud of him...we are in Connecticut - but will definitely be at PIR

Comment by mama B on January 24, 2010 at 12:25pm: Yes, my son is headed to SC into that program, we are excited it seems close to home since we live in Ga!

Comment by mama B on January 24, 2010 at 7:38am: I have a son (ship 7 div 109) ive gotten his first letter... was so excited!

Comment by siscarrie on January 24, 2010 at 12:32am: Hi mikes2ndmom my son is in the same ship and div.

Comment by KayLynns Mom on January 23, 2010 at 3:10pm: My daughter is in Ship 7 div 111, it sounds like I'm not the only one patiently awaiting a call or letter. I hope they are all adjusting well, they are probably adjusting better than we are LOL!!!

Comment by Angie Travis Mom on January 23, 2010 at 12:21pm: Blakes mom,
My son is in Ship 11 DIV 113. He left the 12th. Haven't received anything but the form letter. Have sent lots of letters though. Love to read all the posts.
