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."

I am sure they are out there. Just hang in there. Mine is in ship12 div 033.
Hello.....I'm present.
Hey PreciousMom thanks for joining. When did your daughter leave for Great Lakes? What is her rate/job. I am so glad we have this site for support aren't you?
I just finally got my form tonight- I'm with you!
Cool navymom4e, noticed you had been in the dark for a few days like me, not knowing which Division we would wind up in. What is thier rate/job?
I don't remember technical title- but he is firefighter. This is a great website- I don't feel like I am the only one going crazy! ha ha I missed his call yesterday- he did get to talk to his dad but said he was really upset that he couldn't talk to me so i have cried ever since then. What is your son's job?
He is Aircraft Maintenance Administration, I think the code for it is AZ but still not sure. I know his A School is in Mississippi. I actually didn't get to talk to my son either, he called his wife. But her & I get along great so naturally as soon as she hung up with him she called me. Her & I talk and text every day so that makes it a little easier for me I guess.
Hello ladies.....my daughter left nov 2nd...and her job is administrative etc....
I'm here too =)
Sugarscoop, good to have you "aboard", lol. I see your son left the same day as mine 11/4. What is his rate/job. I am so thankful to have this site, my family would have probably already committed me if it weren't for having this site as an outlet, lol.
kewl yall are finding each other!!!!! sweet.... just remember stay on the regular site too! hugs
So how's everyone doing today? The emotional high from the phone call we got from him Sunday is starting to fade. I just keep reminding myself how lucky we are that he actually did call and especially this early. I only hope we are lucky enough to get another call this weekend maybe or even a letter other than the Form letter.
