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."

Anyone whose son/daughter in this division and who is graduating on June 10th.  Got a call today from my SR.  He had to call to get some info for his FBI background check. He sounded really good and told me that they are on 1-1 day.  They were kind of behind because only 35 showed up on the 14th.  They had to wait a week before the rest of the division showed up.  He's very anxious to get started.  He's actually loving the food so far.  Which is unreal, because he is so picky!!  Told me that division 199 is a half girl/boy division.  Hopefully that goes okay.  My other son was in an all male division and they were a horrible division.  Lots of trouble makers.  He couldn't wait to get out of there.  So far my SR says it seems like a decent division.  Only had IT once so far for 20 minutes!  Hope to meet some of you moms out there!  This is a great sight to stay informed and up to date about what's happening.

here is the link to your PIR group    http://www.navyformoms.com/group/pir6102011
MY SR IS ON SHIP 11 DIV 200.. WHATS THE DIFFERENCE?
Freebird...the only difference is the division #...I believe that 199 and 200 are "brother" divisions which means they train, eat, study, do everything together but sleep. They will go through Battlestations 21 together as well
My son is at ship 11 div 195 and his PIR is on June 10th. Got a letter from him yesterday all is good.
