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."

It's not a good idea to post a pic of your Sailor every time you post. See change 4 in OPSEC and PERSEC (Making Changes to Your Profile) (clickable link). To increase PERSEC, don't include ANYONE in your profile pic.
Also make change 3 (see the words in bold) so that this page is no longer visible to EVERYONE (Anyone) with access to the web.
There may be other changes you need to make as well, so read and consider each of the changes.
Another change that I recommend that is mentioned in change 1 is to change the ZIP Code to one that is not easily associated with you or your Sailor.
You may want to join Girlfriends, Fiances, and Wives of Sailors.
What is your Sailor's rating (job/occupational specialty) and where is he stationed (what vessel, if one)? There may be groups I can direct you to.
Yes, I'm planning on going to PIR! Currently saving as much as I can! :) I just got a call from my fiance for security clearance this morning. Oh gosh how I missed hearing him talk to me! I found out he will be one of the recruits (sailors by then!) holding a flag at the ceremony! :D I'm not sure if this is the whole division, or just him, but it could be his division! :D
Hey Tricia! My fiance is in Ship12 Div080 too! :)
