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."

Hello! My boyfriend is a nuke and in ship 02 and division 932. I though it would be nice to make a place for anyone else with the same division and/or ship to talk and share information! I hope I find some others(:

Ohh okay! Well that's neat!! I think we are staying at a sleep inn which is like a mile and a half from the base. How long are you staying there?
My boyfriend leaves early saturday morning, but because I don't think I will be able to check out, and the hotel is a little closer than driving home I am staying thursday, friday, and saturday night.

okay, when you arrive at the Meet and Greet, look for this sign. I will hang it somewhere and the division can sit together(: It's really glittery and will be hard to miss. :D

Your sign is encouraging!  I think I'll make something patriot for our son for his return, not sure what yet. They are sure to be praised for their commitment to our country at this time in our history.
just don''t bring it to PIR, no signs allowed. This is for the meet and greet, and decorating my car haha

Yes!!  It looks great!  Thanks so much!!

 

No problem. Now nobody can use the excuse that they couldn't find it haha!
I only heard from my 1 time so far.  It was wonderful to hear his voice.  He is tentatively leaving for grad and go on sat. to Pennsacola for an AC.
I'm pretty sure that's what esther's husband is doing too!
That is awesome.  I wonder if the guys know each other...probably so!  He also said in his letter this week that their division is down to about 82 now from 86.  What is your recruit going to and doing?
He is a nuke and going to South Carolina to work on nuclear reactors on submarines.

We have only had 2 letters from my grandson and nothing else.We missed his one call and I have sure been worried. I guess he is doing ok.He is suppose to sing with the choir on graduation day. This has been the longest weeks for me,but I am praying for the guys that all is going as well as can be expected.
