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 Sealifedifferently-ship11/Div209 on May 28, 2010 at 10:31am: All sorry that you did not get any letters. I did get one very short letter yester. He basically just told me that he was doing fine and that the days were going by fast since they were so busy. Two weeks form now and we will be at Graduation... YEA!!!! Can't wait to meet you all and see all the wonderful sailors be rewarded for their hard work. Have a great weekend everyone.

Comment by Charles' Mom Ship 11 Div 210 on May 28, 2010 at 9:53am: didn't get any mail from Charles either. I am hoping he will call again this Sunday.
Not hearing from him always makes me worry. But we only have two weeks left before the big day. I am excited for all the recruits and for all you moms, fiances, girl-friends, ec. It sure has been challenging at times, but we are almost there. Wishing everyone mail today..............and have a fantastic and safe weekend ..............

Comment by SeaBeeMomma((April)) on May 27, 2010 at 6:08pm: My daughter called earlier today and said they were so busy and tired from last week, not many had a chance to write. Hope this helps...

Comment by trashline27 on May 27, 2010 at 5:55pm: No mail for me either...Terence is Ship 11 Div 214...was a little heartbroken but I am trying to do the same...think positive..no news is good news....we are getting so close....

Comment by Abbe(IKE)mom on May 27, 2010 at 5:19pm: No mail for me either. I'll just keep sending my letters and thinking positive thoughts!

Comment by Krystal(Trevor'swife) on May 27, 2010 at 4:38pm: No mail today :( I wonder what happened...Thursday is my mail day. I hope he sent some out this week!

Comment by joshswife(Ship11Div212)PIR06/11 on May 27, 2010 at 12:26pm: Are there any Navy Wives that can wear a size 2X? I ordered a shirt from Cafepress.com and it didn't fit right and now they are sending me another, however they told me I could keep the other shirt. I have not washed it yet so it may shrink or if you can sew you may be able to take it up. Just let me know it's super cute and I can just put it in the mail for you.

Comment by Tess (Ship 11, Div. 210) on May 27, 2010 at 11:25am: Charles' Mom: Yes, I'm here and everything's okay! While I've been periodically checking the site here and there, I haven't had much time to write. Very busy schedule and lots going on. Thanks for asking though --very kind of you. I recently received another letter and got to talk to Alex for about a half hour last Sunday. He sounds really good. He told me that their division was earning every (just about every?) flag possible, uniform ribbons, etc. That bodes well for your son too. I'm sure you are so happy and relieved as well. We've all come such a long way in a short time.

Hi Olga, and everyone! Love to you all. Fingers crossed, we will be seeing each other shortly!

Comment by Charles' Mom Ship 11 Div 210 on May 26, 2010 at 10:51pm: Tess - are you doing okay? I haven't seen you here in a week. Is everything alright?
