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."

Looking forward to getting to know those who are in my son's division.  He is 19 and will be a NUKE.  I am so proud of him.

 Thank you for commenting. That sounds wonderful to me!  My SR (son) is pretty adaptable and will try very hard to make the SR's  in this div. his new family  :)

Hi MamaBear....Sorry that you SR was delayed...hang in there with us....we will get through the next few weeks together...

Yay!  A new countdown?  Count me in!  (Ha ha!)  My future daughter in law will be joining us in this group soon, I'm sure it will be difficult for her, but we are realizing that we will be rejoining our original group at Pre- Buds since the division he was in, moves on together.  But for now, we need to catch up on some support in our new N4M PIR family!  Thank you for your encouragement to a new stranger.

I think this has to be difficult but I think if the trainers thought he was not capable of finishing your SR would have been sent home. There is always hope and a goal to finish it is just taking your SR a little longer. He is still serving in the worlds Best Navy.

Yes, there is a lot to be thankful for. And taking longer for him would ONLY be from illness, and a bit of mis-communication, not because he is not giving more than his all!  I was half way waiting for the roll back, but It seems he will rejoin his div. in GL for PreBuds, so I am grateful he is still standing despite many weeks of illness!

It looks like some of the other divisions in this PIR group have started getting mail more often than once per week.  Has anyones SR said they get to send mail other than on SUN.

AMEN. Love you guys. God Bless all of you

Don't forget to try and win trivia Tues on the facebook page.  I could use some good news today and a picture of our division would be perfect.

Connie, can you send me the link where to answer the trivia question? I can't find it??????
