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 Costello's mom (SHIP 4, DIV 814) on May 24, 2010 at 1:41pm: Jill, when I spoke to my son on sat. he also was sick. He said he has been sick since he got there. He was in excellent health when he left. Must be those shots. I have given my son a new name lol. Please have your recruits to try to find Costello 10 he should know that name. He will think it is something that I have found his friends mom's. Hope ever one is having a great day and I am keeping all our recruits in my prayers.

Comment by SumiK0125 (wife of a Nuke MM) on May 24, 2010 at 11:01am: i think what happened was they either got sick, hurt or didn't pass a test. so they don't necessarily drop out they just get held back. unless they were actually removed all together and sent home. but our guys wouldn't know specifically. they just know they are out of their DIV.

but wow that is alot of guys to be out...
my husband said he was sick when he called two weeks ago for bank info i coud hear it in his voice. he said the same thing as your son jill. that he didn't go to the doc cuz it would have moved his PIR.

Comment by annafornavy on May 24, 2010 at 10:31am: Hi Jill -

Yes I plan on being there Thursday evening.. Even though I live 2 and half hours from GL.But I have to be able to meet all you treasures I have been communicating with.. : ) I am praying and hoping just maybe I can talk to Dustin soon.. WOW 6 guys just dropped out. I didnt know they were allowed to do that. Come on PIR 6/25 DIVISONS hang in there buddies no more drop outs... WE BELIEVE IN YOU!!!!

Comment by annafornavy on May 24, 2010 at 9:09am: JILL: I am so happy he sounded better than the letter. I am sure the shock wave of the first 3 weeks is immense for our loved ones. Things that they took for granted they now appreciate. I am so thankful he is doing well. Dustin said he is just getting over from being sick in his letter last week... ; ( I am sure how those shots at one time reeks havoc on their bodies. I know the flu shot can and I wonder if they get the H1N1 as well... To me that would have been a double whammy for them... Yes 31 glorious days until we get to see them..

Comment by annafornavy on May 24, 2010 at 6:32am: So no calls for DIV 223 - 226 : ( Maybe we will get letters again on Wed or Thur to hold us over if we dont get a call before.. I know they are busy and I am so thankful for that so they dont have as much time to miss us as we miss them.. That does bring me some comfort.. Can you imagine what it is going to feel like when we do get that call.. I lost my cell phone Wed night and I did not get my replacement phone until Friday evening. I was a frantic mess.. As I dont have a home phone. Now we have HOPE that this week just maybe we will hear the angelic voices of our dearest ones... : )

Comment by HSsweethearts on May 24, 2010 at 2:08am: I recived my call from my husband yesterday and recived my letter tuesday so keep waiting and looking everyone I am sure they will come soon! My Husband also said they might get to call tuesday as well :)

Comment by SumiK0125 (wife of a Nuke MM) on May 24, 2010 at 1:43am: i hope to get a call soon. even if i dont get a call i REALLY want another letter....but a call would be the cherry on my sundae!!

Comment by NI39 on May 24, 2010 at 12:36am: I geuss if we dont expect we will be pleasantly surprized if a treat does come our way!

Comment by jessimarie78 on May 24, 2010 at 12:19am: My husband is in ship 9 div 224. I got my letters from him this past Wed and have not yet received a call. It is difficult for me to not talk to him and not know when I'll get to talk to him. It's just about the halfway point, though!

Comment by JENN 226 on May 23, 2010 at 9:46pm: my heart is hurting :( I really thought i might get one this weekend... i have heard tho that they can be any day... randomly... some people got them on a tuesday or thursday... so thats a reason to look forward to tomorrow right?
