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."

Hey everyone. My husband is ship 3 division 51 and I got a call from him today! He passed his inspection and it was so good to hear his voice! He was so excited to hear that we get to see each other for Christmas! Can't wait! Hope y'all get a call soon!

Welcome to our little group. Glad to hear you heard from your husband and that his inspection went well. I have been curious to know how my son did on the academic test and the inspection. Usually, I would go with 'no news is good news', but in this case, it seems like the guys have been calling when they do something good like passing inspection or doing well on the test. Guess we wait and see....

Carla, same feelings here.....I know the Navy wants them to step and excel so that they earn perks in an attempt to motivate the others to step up, too. Everything is a little harder for my son, so I just gotta stick with the "no news is good news", and if he does get to call because of a reward for something; that would be the icing on the cake! :D Hope you hear from your SR soon!

Hello Ashley! I am glad your husband did well on his inspection and was able to call! My son is also in the same division.

Thanks Carla and Liberty! I'm sure they are doing good! They're just so busy! My husband said that the division is doing much better with their marching so that's good!
Also, does either of y'all's son have a last name that starts with a w or b? -

Unfortunately, no....our last name starts with M....and I am desperately seeking someone who knows him or someone who says their loved one has made friends with him. So far, I have struck out every time.

Sorry Ashley, my son's last name starts with an M, too.

Me too! I know there's 77 people in division 51, there's got to be someone out there that knows our SRs! Lol
