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."

Have you heard from your daughter or son?  My daughter is in Div 300 and she sounds good, but tired.  Interesting in hearing how your daughter or son is doing.

Dawn L.(Ben's Mom Ship 11 Div 295) Talked to Ben today and he was on liberty for the weekend. He went to the mall with some others and bought some civilian clothes and a couple of books to read. He isn't allowed to wear civilian clothes yet, but he's putting them back for when he can. I don't think he'll be reading the books he bought soon, because he starts "A" school on Monday. I miss him and wish he were home , but I know that this is what he really wanted to do with his life.

Has anyone ordered their free Blue Star Flag to hang in your window at home? It is available for free to anyone who has a son or daughter serving active duty in the military. I ordered one about 3 or 4 weeks ago and it came today. It is now hanging proudly in my living room window on the front of my home. Here is the link:

Dawn(Ben's Mom Ship 11 Div 295) - He's starts "A" school on Monday in mass communications. There are 3 other sailors from this PIR 9/2/10. They get along very well. They are spending this evening going to the movies. Tell everyone it gets easier after boot camp. He's stationed in Fort Meade, MD. He's now only 6 hours away from home and his uncle is also in the Navy and lives in Annapolis. It's so nice to be able to talk to Ben instead of waiting for a letter.
