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."

Anyone else bummed that we won't get to see them march into PIR as a group? We won't know what flags they won. Only the performers will march in with their performing group. Some won't march in at all. Makes me a little sad after all their hard work they don't get this moment.  :(

Corina, same here. I asked him about it in my last letter. I hope he says something about it in this weeks letter!
Comment by Corina on August 3, 2011 at 7:38am

Has anyone heard about Battlestations? On facebook they mentioned lighting a blue candle for them during that time. I am hoping when I get her letter she mentions it.

Yeah that's what my kid wrote me..they perform 2 graduations and then theirs. I too will be eye balling the next 2 Friday pictures in hopes of getting a glimpse of my SR.
Comment by Corina on August 2, 2011 at 10:18am

I don't think so but someone told me they do at least two and then theirs so I am thinking this Friday, next Friday and then theirs. On the US Navy Recruit Training Command, they have pics on there from each gradution so I am looking forward to this weeks to see if they are on there.

Thanks Corina. Do you know if they performed in last weeks pir.

 

Comment by Corina on August 2, 2011 at 8:11am

No phone calls here but I read that some of the other divisions were in hell week so I am not sure if that is what they are in the middle of. 

Comment by msp603ship02div940 on August 2, 2011 at 8:08am
Has anyone had calls? I would have expected another call by now. Hope the division is progressing well. I see where other divisions with pir 8/have recieved a couple of calls. Just wondering...

I found my daughter in the Facebook pics! At least I think it's her... She looks so different in the dress whites and BCG glasses, its hard to tell. Well I will pretend it's her anyway!
Comment by jma1216 Ship 2 Div 940 on July 30, 2011 at 9:40am
Corina, prayers for your daughter, I'm sure she will find the strength and finish strong.

Cheryl, our mail is so weird, some weeks we get letters as soon as Wednesday some as late as Monday .
