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."

Hello,

My son is in Ship #12 Division 359.  Was wondering if anyone has a son or daughter in the same division?

I see you have joined your PIR group; I also invite you to join Boot Camp Moms (and loved ones) and to check out the Pages (found under the pictures of the Members) there. Take care and blessings to you and yours.

Hi Lisa, He sounded good but still fighting a cold. Seems like a lot of the guys are still feeling it. He said that today is 2-5 for them. Also said they may get to call again today. So keep your phone near by :)

Looking like our Div isn't getting to call today...Seems like our Div 359/360 have had the least amount of calls. Not sure what that means. Really missing my SR...

Hi Tracy,
Yes we heard from him and got to speak to him about 10 minutes. It was so emotional. As we passed the phone from me to his sisters and father we all cried. I am making reservations today. Pretty sure we are going to stay at la Quinta. Matt will be going to gulf port for A school. What about your SR? How are you holding up?

Hi Lisa! Did you get a call yesterday? We did make all our reservations for his P.I.R. I'm so excited even though it's still pretty far away. He sounded so good, tired but good. Said they were getting pretty beaten down cause the rdc's were trying to get them caught up from being delayed. I love him, I was soooo happy to hear from him.
