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."

Hi Diane's Mom!  My daughter is also 12/310! Just got the form letter Monday....saying a prayer I get a 'real letter' in tomorrow's mail.

Hi angellee3,

It's so great to hear from you! I miss my daughter so much and can't wait to hear from her!

 

I think this photo is of 12/310: https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10150266712664651&set=p...

 

I'm not positive, but it sure looks like my daughter on the far left. It was taken today and was posted by the RTC on facebook.

I also think this picture is of 12/310.  I think I see my son :-) I know it's wishful thinking, but I really think it's him.  Don't you just want to grab 'em and hug 'em!!!!! 
So happy for you!  Unfortunately I couldn't see my daughter. :(

Hi Allison! We also received our letter on Monday. It's so nice to hear from another family member!

Hey everybody!  Katherine - thanks for starting the group.  Hoping for "real" mail today!

 

Hey everybody - my email address is evipcraig@gmail.com - would love to know your recruits names so I can ask my son if he has met them - I know we're not supposed to post last names here but I'm afraid he will only know them by their last names!  So, if you are ok sharing the info via email - please do so - I'm always looking for things to write to him about.  He is going into the NUKE program in Charleston after boot camp.  Diane - I've already written about your daughter!
Hi Evi, my email address is deidre.elkins@gmcr.com and I also would love to share our recruits names!  I'm also always looking for things to write about when sending my son letters.  Great Idea!

Duh - I meant Katherine!

 

Great idea, Evi, thanks! my email is kwtracey@hotmail.com
oops I posted my reply on the wrond discussion, but my Son is in this group and we got our form letter Aug. 1st.  Look forward to hearing from others as well :)
Hi Julez mom - our group is growing!  I am anxiously awaiting "real" mail - hoping for tomorrow!
