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."

seabreeze - The only FFI that I know of is : Faliure to Follow Instructions. So if he didn't get it, then he did follow instructions!

Glad he is good...rooting for the PFA...they take three and the third ( adn last) one is the most important. Everyone must take that one and everyone must pass that one...even if they have passed the 1st or 2nd.

Marlinspike can be the turning point for a Division. They find out whether or not they are a team as you can see and can use it as a "marker" to move forward.

Comment by mamabeans on March 19, 2012 at 6:07pm

Was dying for a letter today.  Nope.  :(  Today is his 19th birthday.  I spent from 1am-4am sitting in his room smelling his jacket from "the box".  I need a straight jacket soon.

Comment by FireTeamLeaderWife aka FTLW on March 19, 2012 at 6:06pm

If anyone can help evanzmom get mail to this recruit that would be wonderful! TY evanzmom and to your SR too for letting you know!

Comment by mamabeans on March 19, 2012 at 6:04pm

diannep:  Thanks but that was a shared letter from another mom.  I wish I could hear those words from my son!  But alas, I might have to wait for hell to freeze over on that one because he is so stubborn to admit that!  But the letter itself was an inspiration!

Comment by sjtina on March 19, 2012 at 6:03pm

Evanzmom I sent you a friend request. I would love to write.Its been 2 years for my son and I sure miss those letters.

Comment by CTsailor (03/118 PIR 4/13/12) on March 19, 2012 at 5:53pm

Two more letters today!!! So happy they can write more now :) He said the same things-- they aren't working well together, girls are very chatty, and they didn't do good on Marlinspike. Praying for them to pull it together and start working as a team!

Comment by spring932 on March 19, 2012 at 5:35pm

seabreeze...... that is a bummer for the Marlinspike. My letter was dated 3/11 so I did not get any info about the weeks activities. And my SR had her wisdom teeth pulle don 3/13 so I was really hoping for a letter dated after that.

Comment by proudmom on March 19, 2012 at 5:06pm
here we go another loop on this roller coast!!! Friends and family are getting visitors with questions about my son...LOL
Comment by evanzmom (ship 03 div 117) on March 19, 2012 at 4:56pm

Moms, got a letter from my SR (finally!) and he is just fine. He gave me the name of a SR that hasn't received ANY mail yet. Will anyone help me get this young man some mail love??? Message me and I'll send you his name privately. Thanks - I know us moms will let this kid know he is loved!!
