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."

I'm doing the exact same thing! I hope the form letter comes today. But you should call and ask because she may have it already.

My husband also left on March 6th but he's in Ship 13 Div 163. 

Do any of you know the PIR date for these divisions? I am guessing that you all may have a 05/02 PIR. Here is the link to that PIR group, there are others there with loved ones in what should be the same TG.

PIR May 2, 2014

I still have not heard (received the letter) letting me know when my son's graduation date is.  I'm hoping I get it today...I've been stalking the mailbox for the past couple of days!!

I haven't either. So hopefully we both get it today. I seen other people get calls last weekend really wish I would have gotten one. Hopefully this weekend I will hear from him.

This weekend was a little tough - I think it was just the disappointment of not getting the letter or hearing anything.  I will cross my fingers for both of us that today is the day :)

I will also!! And I think they actually got to write a letter yesterday so we should be looking for that too this week.

That's so exciting to hear!!

I know!! I will be waiting by the mail box all week lol.

I received my husband's form letter today. His graduation date is May 2nd, and he's in ship 11 DIV 162.

I got my husbands form letter also!! He graduates may 2 and is on ship 11 div 161

I received my letter today...FINALLY :)  My son graduates May 2 and he's in ship 13 DIV 163.
