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."

The Page, 800 and 900 Divisions, within Boot Camp Moms (and loved ones) will be of interest to you since you have a recruit in a performing division. I believe that Division 914 is Sticks/Flags.

Lori I received 2 letters yesterday from my daughter. She said the div is good just need to learn to work better as a team which I hear is very normal!! I also spoke with her for 6 mins last Sunday but she kept crying so that made it so hard. She said she's not sad just missed hearing my voice!!!! I'm sorry you missed your call that's very hard!! I hope you get another one this week!!!
