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."

Us us us!! Our Tommy is in ship 9/ div 266. Do you think the guys and gals train together? I presume so!! His first note said the first sleepless 60 hrs were tough but now the time is flying by. Feel free to ask your dtr if she has met him yet. He is the rcpo for div 266. How's your girl doin?

Got form letter- her little note sounds great- don't forget to join PIR group- link below!

Yes Rana my daughter's fiance Cody is in ship9 div 266 just got form letter yesterday and a note on the back do you think they hav a few seconds at night to converse with each other yet.  I know when i was in Army BC many moons ago sometime late in our training we could talk it each other in the barracks at night before lights out.

Join the group, PIR 8/24/2012 (clickable link), to connect with others with loved ones training with your SR.  Know that Divisions 265 and 266 are brother divisions and train together, so look for others with loved ones in either division. 

Divisions 265 and 266 are integrated divisions (male and female).  The males and females do train together, but they have separate living quarters within the ship (barracks)--the males of the 2 divisions are together and the females are together.

Thanks for information

You are welcome.

Yes MOMOFTOM(ship9/Div266) I read a thread just a few mins ago that the guys and gal do train together just of course sleep in different barracks same ship different barracks.  Not like when I was in nothing but girls training  on the whole base.
