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 everyone. I noticed that there is no group for Ship 07 Div 35 so I decided to get one started. I hope other love ones will join soon.

We just got in and are staying at the La Quinta.  Can't wait to see him tomorrow.  Everyone is so excited it's hard to sleep even after the 11+ hour drive.  We plan to be there tomorrow to check him out shortly after 8.  Would be nice to see anyone else who has come.  I'm wearing a long sleeve green Christmas swearshirt and flared jeans with a white coat.

awww so sorry I am just seeing this cause I would have be on the lookout to meet you. My poor baby is sleeping his life away so we are here watching him sleep...lol

that's okay maybe we can all meet up on the 5th. :)

Ok good. It was so sad to see him leave but I have to count my blessings that we were able to come and be with him. This day couldn't be any more perfect than it was today. We will be staying at this same hotel when we come back in two weeks except that my husband's dad will be joining us so then we will get a two bedroom suite instead.  Have a great night all.

Good Morning and Merry Christams!! Enjoy your day with your SR's:)

Just wanting to let you all know my SR just called!! MERRY CHRISTMAS!!! :)

Just got a call also. So good to hear from my SR. thank you God. Merry Christmas to all. Hope you all get to hear from your SR's too.

so happy to hear that you are getting calls. Picked up my sailor and we are here in the hotel catching up...

 

I am so thankful that you are receiving calls. We were able to pick up our son, and another recruit. I am loving to hear all the stories they are telling. I can't wait for you to hear all the stories from your recruits.
Merry Christmas! Got my phone call today! So good to hear my SR's voice. Grateful for those organizations that have taken time out for sons and daughters
This is one Christmas they will never forget! See you all soon!

What a wonderful day with our SR!  For those who couldn't make it they all look good and my son says everyone seems to be in good spirits :)  Looking forward to graduation!  Not long now.

Picture of our guys who got adopted is up on the RTC's facebook page!!!!
