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."

That's great, Boymom3. You must be so proud. We haven't heard from our son since last week, but expect another letter soon. Our son is/was a skinny one, too, but we expect he's going to look much different when we see him next month.

The letter we received last week mentioned their Division received the academic flag. We can't find anything that references that...have any of you heard about this?

Jackie--Sorry I didn't see your post before now. I'm on Pacific Time and up by 4:00am so my evenings are quite short. Almost sounds like I could've been a sailor! :-) Thank you for your phone number; I'll try to reach you this weekend.

Jackie, sorry I did not see your post till now. The price seems reasonable, do you have the website and we can take a peek. If it is easier than making something I am all for it, you are busy enough and I am not at all creative to be able to help you.

Hi, everyone. Just found out about this site and this group. Nice meeting all of you. We'll be at the graduation on 9/2, but won't arrive in time for the meet & greet the night before. Love the ribbon idea so we can identify our group. JHenderson, I'll try to figure out how to e-mail you directly with our names. Let me know if I can help with anything on graduation day.
