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."

Sorry, don't have a date yet for the 900 divisions.  Please let me know if you hear of one and check back with me in a week or so to see if I have a date.  It will be during PIR week for sure.

Hi, ironicaly my name is jackie too and my son michael left 1/4/13 for bootcamp, waiting for what seems forever to get package/form letter so I can send him all the encouraging letters I wrote him.  Pls let me know if you get your form letter.  I wonder if this delay is normal or not.
