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."

AGREED!!! Yes, my SR said they lost phone privilages too. He didn't go into detail as to why. Was extremely happy to get a letter today. Helps put me in a much better mood. I also would love to see a pic of our division. Unfortunately, I'm at work with no access to my facebook :(

Glad to hear your SR's are doing great. Michigan, hope you get to hear from your SR soon, I still have no idea when or if mine is going to get to call his letters are very brief. He's not a big writer, but at least I am getting a letter a week.

Michigan, I got a call yesterday. DIV 342 earned 30 min call time so I got to talk to him for about 10 min then he called his sister and fiance. So glad I got to talk to him, he has made E2 and DIV 342 has won and academic flag. It was so good to hear his voice. It makes the day brighter and the time pass quicker it seems. Hope you get to hear from your SR soon too.
