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 SarahsMom(Ship03/Div176) on April 30, 2012 at 2:24pm: s_amburgey, thanks for the update. No letters no call so far. I mailed her a letter today with a prepaid envelope and a sheet of paper with "Write your Mother" written across the top. It may be that she has not had the opportunity to write yet but to be clear, I wanted to make sure she knew I expected a letter. Hoping for phone call in the next few days!!

Have a great day!

Comment by Betsy, mom of Stennis sailor on April 30, 2012 at 12:20pm: Kim, beautiful family.

Comment by diannep on April 30, 2012 at 8:42am: Good morning everyone!

CAB: That's a good question to ask your SR in a letter or if you get a call. Once you know the week/day count on a specific date, you can keep up. Just remember...they will move back a day after Memorial Day in the day count. Holidays don't count in training numbers. Neither do weekends.

Comment by CAB on April 29, 2012 at 9:21pm: Has anyone with a SR in Division 171 or 172 heard which week and day of training the division is on?

Comment by Recruit Man - Ronny on April 29, 2012 at 5:32pm: Calls for Recruits

Comment by kathyrc(Ship03DIV175)PIR 6/08/12 on April 29, 2012 at 3:06pm: Beautiful pic!! YAY for 39 days...

Comment by SarahsMom(Ship03/Div176) on April 29, 2012 at 12:41pm: She better get to it. I need to hear from her. If no letter before she calls home,she is going to hear about it......

Comment by Lala Ribbon Queen PIR Ribbons on April 29, 2012 at 11:20am: kim, that is a beautiful picture, such a happy little boy. I bet you are very excited to all be together again :-)

Comment by SarahsMom(Ship03/Div176) on April 29, 2012 at 11:10am: Has any one in Div 176 received a letter??? My daughter better not think she is exempt from writing. HA!

Comment by Lala Ribbon Queen PIR Ribbons on April 29, 2012 at 8:59am: Thanks so much Craig, I didn't know that about your daughter. How is she doing and when does she finish? We have kind of adopted this young girl and do a lot for her and treat her like she is one of our own. Her family life is not very good. She had to grow up way too fast and has to be the "adult" in the house. She plans all the meals, does all the shopping and cooking and can't really just be a kid. Her dad is in prison and her mom acts like a teenager all the time. So sad. But she is a great kid and we keep trying to get her to go Navy but she has wanted to be in the Air Force since she was tiny. We are running out of time to bring her to good side lol. I will check out that page and definitely send the link to her. Thanks again :-) and good luck to your "traitor" I mean daughter lol.
