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."

Ladies, be careful about what you post here....especially when sharing personal info that your SRs have shared with you about RDCs, etc. Not a good idea. They DO read these pages, including the discussions. Better to be more general! Just click on the "x" in the post box if your info is too specific. Thanks!

Wow I wish I had found this site many weeks ago when BC started. It sure would have helped with my worrying about letters and phone calls. My BF is Ship 11 Div 132 also. Now with only like 8 or 9 days to go I have received letters as well as calls but in the first few weeks I was worried. He has said much of the same in his letters as you all described in the letters you received. I also followed the link to Facebook and thanks so much for posting the link. I also had no idea that existed either. I honestly do not know too much about the NAVY or military for that matter and I'm starting to catch on by reading the posts. Thank you all :)
