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."

Got 2 letter today..:)

Got letter today! He says the group is doing well and on their way to becoming Hall of Fame. Still a few knuckleheads in group lol but they have won a lot of flags.

So glad you hear from him..13 more days and I'm packing!

Gosh I really miss my sailor! I'm so ready to see him again!

ME TOOO ! I hate not seeing him everyday but I am so excited we have less than 2 weeks until we see our sailors :)

I'm glad u got a letter B3ranch :)

LOL B3Kranch, your comments made me laugh. Despite the "knuckle heads" I'm so proud of them. Can't wait to see them. I know I'm gonna cry to see them all marching out with their uniforms and flags. Some left as boys... But the Navy turned them into Men!
I realized he was becoming a man when he said that it was tough but still the best decision he has ever made! :')

Hey deke!! I'm sorry to hear that no one in div 130 is around but all of us here will be more than happy to be your friend!!!

Welcome deke! Everything will be okay we are almost to PIR and then you will see your sailor :) ! He seems upbeat and I'm glad you heard from him!!!!!! Ladies we got 12 More Days YYYAAAYYYY!

Ladies, if you have posted a BattleStations date above, please delete your post.  We are not allowed to post BattleStations dates on N4Moms...against OPSEC (RTC asked us not to do this).  So please click the "x" in the box and delete!  I have added the date to the schedule I'm keeping.  Looks like 127-130 will all go on the same night! 

Sorry I deleted it..
