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."

Thank you! I would have loved to have seen you, too! Boy, it was wild after liberty call and as nice as it would have been to see others and their sailors it was really nice just to have your sailor to yourself for a little while. We went to the airport with our son the next morning and had 8 hrs. with him and his friends going to Pensacola so that was nice. It was a fun weekend, but emotionally draining and tiring as well. Where did your sailor go?

Hey! Saw your message. Question: Are you sure that your son didn't order the DVD with the picture package? The DVD is mailed about 4-6 weeks after PIR. There should be a receipt in his picture package so check it to see if the DVD is listed. If not, contact the following to see about ordering it:

Good luck! It is well worth getting!

I am going to say a prayer for you guys for safe travels, and we all have big hugs for you when we finally meet!

You should be getting a call if you haven't yet! They all passed. Your grandson is a Sailor!!! Congratulations - you've made it!

Hey there... Saw your question about phone calls today but we are moving fast so I didn't want my answer to get lost on the board. The kids from 301 and 302 did battle stations last night and should be making their "I'm a Sailor" calls this afternoon. What division is your grandson in?

Hi!

Are you talking about your provfile picture? Yes, that photo is fine. =) We just make sure that the pictures submitted do not contain your Sailor's last name!

Thank you,

Elizabeth

My son is in 4 - 819 he has a little over two weeks left. It has been so hard for me to let go but this is something he wanted to do. I am very excited to see him when I go up for graduation.
