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 ArNavyMom on November 9, 2011 at 8:18pm: @ lsawinski - THAT IS WONDERFUL! The letters are their life-line!

Comment by RuthL on November 9, 2011 at 7:50pm: No letter today, but so happy for those of you that have. I will keep checking that box and keepmy fingers crossed. I feel like I did when I was a kid waiting for Santa!

Comment by ArNavyMom on November 9, 2011 at 6:24pm: @ My son and Mulegal - YAY! I summarized my letter too...above...under 09 / 021.

Comment by Mulegal on November 9, 2011 at 6:06pm: We got our second letter!! I love to hear from him but get emotional when i read how much he misses home. Never thought it would be that way and neither did he. He kept saying he could not wait to be gone! I guess he is realizing that we were not so bad to put up with.

Comment by My son (ship 09, Div 023) on November 9, 2011 at 6:01pm: Happy Day! I just opened a letter from our SR it was thrilling. I posted more under my son's ship/div. Prayers to all of you with PIR of 12/29 for letters soon.
