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."

My son is Division 911 PIR 01/23/2015 and we still haven't received the "I'm a Sailor!" call. Did get a letter today telling us the 900 groups will be on duty during the ceremony and where he will be. Has any other 911 family gotten a call? The 23rd can't get here soon enough!!
