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."

MO Mom- thanks.. It's one of those things-- why the form letter or sailors sent home says one thing and the navy website says another. I don't like the contradictory information. So, being the worrrier that I am, we'll risk the long lines at the DMV today and attempt to get photo id's for both non-driving non-passport posessing teenagers. Ah, the joys.

Wisconsin Mom...I just read on the Navy website...Kids over twelve could use a photo I.D., SS card or a birth certificate. It didn't really specify what kind of photo I.D.??? I would think you would be fine with a school I.D. and SS card. If you have their birth certficates handy, you might want to bring them just to be on the safe side.

Hey ladies! I'm here chilling in my hotel room at great lakes navy lodge. The weather is beautiful! Drove past the base today and that is beautiful as well! I can't wait for Friday. Did our boys make hall of fame? I seen the picture of the 821. It's only of a few of them, maybe 6-7 going into gas chambers. I'm so proud and each and every one of our SAILORS you ladies are amazing and I can't wait to see all of your faces in the 821 division section at PIR :)
