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 12 Div 349...Got a phone call from my daughter today, she sounded upbeat, despite the fact that she has had severe bronchitis for three days, she has NEVER been sick! Medical said if she had waited one more day to see them they would of had to do surgery to remove the fluid, WTH! Does anyone have a daughter named Santiago? That is her bunk mate, who has taken care of my daughter. But her attitude seemed really positive, and she ask to be taken off light duty today so she didn't lose her phone call home.

Got a call from our daughter today...she called at the exact perfect time, because our entire family was over for a bbq and she got to say hello to everyone! We are a bit worried though she gets her wisdom teeth pulled tomorrow... I am sure she will be fine just a little concerned, Why do they pull them if they aren't even bothering her? Also got our info to download the gate pass today. So excited to see her!!

Thanks Lorianne! Hope your daughter has adjusted well. They're in the building up the sailor stage, right?! 5th week there & mine sounded much better than her last call on 8/3. Have a great day!

We received letter #2 from our SR today, Ship 12, Div 349. She's still homesick but doing just fine. She's looking forward to the new training they're doing, esp. weapons. We are all counting the days to PIR! I have been looking, but have not found-how does one dress for PIR? Casual dress or formal dress. My husband doesn't even own a suit!
