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!!   Each division will have some individual issues because each division will be unique.  I hope you find this discussion helpful and fun!!

Didn't get a call or a letter. Very disappointed. Maybe later today for call. The mail has already arrived and nothing in it. Dang it.
Did't get a call but got the best letter yet! Very upbeat and positive. Said if they did well, they got calls...I didn't get the call. He is looking forward to graduation. Wanted me to let everyone know that he was still alive, my guess on that is letters (other then from me) have slowed down, cuz he said to keep the letters coming!! I got two questionaires back and they were great. He said they were fun to do, I'm glad I sent them!! Hesitated on that, didn't think he would fill them out, but he did and added a great letter!! Today has been a good day!
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
Hi Lala Ribbon Queen, I got my ribbons today. Thank you so much. They are awesome.
I got a call yesterday. He "can't wait for this to be over". Sounded positive though. I can't wait to see him and see what a man he has become. I'm getting so excited. Only 10 days until we leave to go up there. I've already started packing.
So glad you got a call and he sounds positive. No phone call yet to us. but still hoping.. Getting super excited here also. can hardly wait....
Wrote my son a letter telling him this would probably be the last one he gets until I see him next week. I'm not sure when he'll get it, but I was thinking not until the end of the week. I included all the football scores over this past weekend. He LOVES his football.
ok Lynne says for us to post who and how many would be at meet and greet. There will be three of us,i dont remember who was going to take count in this div and report back to Lynne.
Hi. there will be 2 of us.. possibly 3. not sure yet of my son's finacee. I dont know either who in our group are taking count.. Looking forward to seeing all of you....
There will be 2 of us. Not sure who is keep count. I guess we can all say here and then of us can give her the numbers.
There will be 2 of us. I don't think my sister and my niece will be in town in time.
There will be four of us and I can't wait. I'm really getting antsy.
