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."

Chino's Mom a Little Lost and In Need of information...
I hope you can help me try to find out some information about the A school transfer.. My son just went into Great Lakes on Jan. 6th but he has heard from the chaplain that A school is going to move to San Antonio, Tex. and we are wondering will be included in that transfer or will be staying in Great Lakes.. Of course S.A. would be closer but, i also heard that if he started at Great Lakes then that is where he will probably finish. We are just trying to get the right information.. I was also told through one of the groups here for me to try and locate Chief Officer Angie she would be able to inform me or my son about this transfer.. But i really don't know my way around here, so that is why i have come to you in hopes that you might be able to help me.. Your efforts would be appreciated so much.. My Son is in Ship 12 Div 092 I wrote a blog to a Chief Angie in means to try and locate cus i was also told she is an N4M so if you might be able to help I sure could use your help..
I wanna Thank you in your efforts ..

Your son should have received all information about the HM "A" School moving and how/if it will affect him

My son is also at boot camp now. He PIR is 3-11-11. He will be going to Corpsman school. I also heard that he will either be sent to San Antonio or stay in Great Lakes but haven't heard for sure which one yet. I am in Texas so I was hoping for San Antonio.
