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."

Welcome families and friends of Salilor Recruits with PIR THURSDAY, December 29, 2011.

OPSEC, OPerational SECurity, is always of the utmust importance. Please take the time to read the Opsec and Community Guidelines. A quick note here: Last Names are never allowed on this site. If it is different from your Recruits it is still not recommended. First Names and pictures of your Recruit are allowed but discouraged as their RDC's read this site and can easily match them up with their "mom". So you might want to consider changing your profile picture.CLICK MEOPSECandCOMMUNITY GUIDELINES

Comment by Presleysmom on November 25, 2011 at 4:36am: Yahoo my son finally called. Very short but was so nice to hear his voice. It was a great Thanksgiving after all.

Comment by RuthL on November 24, 2011 at 9:38pm: I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgivng. We had a great day with family. The highlight of my day was to hear my husbands 80 year-old uncle talk about our SR with such pride. He served in the Navy during WWII. He very rarely talks about it, but today his pride in my daughter, his great neice brought me to tears.

Comment by ArNavyMom on November 24, 2011 at 11:03am: Good morning and have a wonderful Thanksgiving Navy Mom's, Dad's, Siblings, Girlfriends, family and friends. High hopes for a phone call today!

Comment by FireTeamLeaderWife aka FTLW on November 24, 2011 at 10:04am: Here's a little video from my favorite Thanksgiving show.

May you all have a Blessed day!

Comment by Lala Ribbon Queen PIR Ribbons on November 24, 2011 at 8:18am: Happy Thanksgiving, I know it is hard to be away from your recruit but try to enjoy this time with your family and friends. Take the time to count your many blessings knowing your recruit is in good hands. Hopefully this time at bootcamp will pass swiftly and you will be hugging your Sailor very soon. I will remember each and everyone of you and your recruits in my prayers and I really hope you get a nice phone call home today. If you do put them on speaker phone and let the whole family tell him/her how proud they are and how they know they can reach this goal. Have a wonder Thanksgiving, Lora

Comment by diannep on November 24, 2011 at 8:05am: Presleysmom: Continue knowing that no news is good news at bc....it helps a little! Hoping you'll get a call today? But if not, he's ok!

Comment by Presleysmom on November 24, 2011 at 4:27am: Happy Thanksgiving everyone. Still no call but his letters are very upbeat so I have to believe all is ok. He said his bunkmate is from Africa if any family of a gentleman from Africa in division 21 is on here I would love to chat

Comment by diannep on November 23, 2011 at 8:35pm: Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! Flying out early in the morning to visit my sailor son for 2 days. If he brings his laptop, will try to check in on here. If not, I'll catch up on Sunday! Enjoy your holiday!

Comment by Betsy, mom of Stennis sailor on November 23, 2011 at 5:20pm: Ladies. I will be hoping for phone calls home tomorrow. For those who are able to have dinner with their SR's enjoy and please give them from us.
