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 son to left from DFW on December 15th and he is SHIP 3 DIV 084. have you heard from your daughter yet or receive any letters?
Hi, I have not heard from my daughter, only her recruiters. i got the address from them just yesterday. They did not know the PIR date yesterday and they are closed today. I did not get the letter from her today so I still do not know. It is hard to wait. I hope they are all doing well and I hope you enjoy Christmas. I am just so proud of my daughters decision.....I am sure you are too. PIR will be wonderful! Linda
Hi, My daughter called today, she is division 85, the pir date is 2/18 so your child will be in that pir. Have a wonderful holiday, I hope you get a call over Christmas. My daughter said that its tough but ok. Take care
