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."

Ship 11 Div 134 PIR 4/27/12
I just got the letter late yesterday. My son arrived at GL on 3/1. I thought we might be pushing it to make the 4/27 date, but happily surprised. Got a GREAT note on the back of the letter... Has he changed this much already that he seems to really miss us? Wow!
Hoping to connect with other 11/134 moms. Let me know. :D Hang in there! We're gonna make it, just like our kids! :D

We cannot change the title on this discussion...LovemyBug has too...but I have not seen any activity for her. Would you like to start another Discussion? I can manually transfer all of your posts. It will have my profile pic but I can add yours along with the "reply" info. Then I can close or delete this one. If I close it it folks won't be able to post and it will eventually move down the list here. Delete...it will be gone. Let me know...just post back on here. FTLW
