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."

Welcome to Your Division!  I hope you will be able to attend the Meet and Greet.  Just to make it fun I hope you will take a little time and design a simple flag to represent your division at the Meet and Greet that will be used to designate your divisional table.  While we will all meet together as a PIR group it will help you find each other as a division as well!  Show your creativity!!

If anyone else in this group wants to order ribbons please send me a friend request or a message. We are running out of time. I also except PayPal for those of you who prefer to pay that way. It is easy to set up an account and it is very safe and super fast. You pay today your ribbons are mailed tomorrow. Thanks
Hey Ladies. Have any one of you heard about your sailor sending his formal pictures home?? My husband said he sent his but I haven't received them.
Okay folks, who is coming to the meet and greet at Anastasias? Lynne needs a headcount and besides myself she has no one on her list. So just let me or her know how many and I'll make sure we are all represented well. Also, is anyone creative that could make a flag for the table. Just something small that could be put into a styrofoam base?
We will be there. Three of us.
I will be there + 3....
When someone has a chance can you take a picture of your division picture or scan it and put it up on here. My son is in the fit division now or still and it would be great to see a picture of him.

I just joined the group.  My son went to A school in Goose Creek, SC (6 month school).  He is now in Power School (6 month school) and will graduate Dec. 2.  Overall he seems to like the Navy & the NUKE program.  After Power School is Prototype School (6 month school).  It looks like he'll be starting Prototype in February, but with the Navy, you never know until it happens.  In the meantime he will be assigned work after he graduates & until he goes to Prototype.  

 

Since he left for Boot Camp Sept. 7 2010, I've only spent about 6 hours with him.  I'll be seeing him for Power School graduation & will probably see him for several days.

I'd love to get updates & pass onto my son.  I know he would like updates on those he went to BC with.  If you mention that he was one of the most fit in the Division & a wrestler & very popular they likely will know who he is.  He enjoyed Boot Camp & made a lot of friends.  He really enjoyed those in his division.
