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."

Ship 10 Division 167 PIR 4/23/10
Would love to connect and hear from those of you with a son/dau in the same Ship 10/Dvision 167 group. We received our "Box" today and the form letter from Chase. Were hoping & looking forward to his call/'s and letters between now and when we see him on 4/23/10. We have so many questions and so curious/anxious to hear about everything going on.
Looking forward to hear from you all. Have a great evening!
Hugs....Janiece/Utah
