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."

My boyfriend left on the tenth and i just got his address and everything. Do you know if its integrated with the girls? lol sorry I was just curious...Im still waiting on a letter too :(
I got my box yesterday, no letter yet. It is still so new, we won't have a PIR date for a few weeks. I am not sure if it is integrated with girls or not ;-) Let's keep in touch, we will all be together at graduation right?? LOL
YES! lol is your loved one in the same division? I cant wait to know when he is graduating! Have you got a letter yet?
no letters yet, no PIR date, so we have to wait, it is still too soon I believe. Probably another 2 - 3 weeks until we know when graduation is. so we have to hang in there and be patient. I feel it will get easier as time goes by, already down 1 week. LOL.. The first week was hard, I hope this week flies by. I am keeping busy by writing letters. #4 letter out today. LOL.
August 6 is graduation-my son is in the same division.
I just checked online the graduation date is Aug 6th. I am so excited now. I will make reservations asap. But, I may hold off on the airline until I know for sure everything is going as planned. Is that what other people are doing???
were driving there because we are in buffalo but I would hold off on Airline tickets until you know for sure because anything can happen :)
We will be flying into O'Hare, that is about all I know for now. I plan on waiting a few more weeks at least, before I make firm plans.
Has anyone received a letter besides the form letter from division 266 yet?
Neither his parents nor I have but when i talked to him sunday he said that they havent let them send them out yet so hopefully they let them sunday or monday but probably not till next week im thinking. I was just going to ask this question :)
Has anyone received a letter yet?
No, not yet for me. I can't wait. today is a really tough day for me. I am missing him and crying more often. Oh, well, It should get better as time goes on. I think a letter will help me.
