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."

Wow, comps on Monday...just crazy!!! Wonder how long his t-track will be...

 

Class M is moving right along...my boyfriend said he's jealous of Class A because they're done next week haha

Tell me about it. Mike shares a room with someone who has been there since February and Mike gets to finish A school 2 weeks before him :)

 

As for T-Track -- rumors are floating around in his class that it will be between 2-3 months. I sure hope not!

Haha the poor roommate!! Oh goodness.... 2-3 months, geez! How's engaged life? :)
Engaged life is filled with hugs, shrieks of happiness, and jumping up and down (generally, people's reaction when they hear the news in person for the first time). Planning is full speed ahead!

Awww that sounds like a wonderful way to go through life!!

You guys are planning for December right? How are you doing that in terms of dates, etc?

Yup. For New Year's Eve!

 

I saw your comment about the church on base. It's All Saints Chapel which is near the big Nex. There is a car service (driven by nukes on T-Track) -- I think it was a Dodge or something. Bright blue! I don't know where the pick up point is but I'll see if Mike knows. All Saints is within walking distance to the the BEQs but the car will definitely save Travis a bit of time.

Thank you so much for this info!! The car would make things much easier :) :)

Only about 5 months till the wedding...woohoo!

Mike's text:

 

"the duty van? Go to bowman or wait at subway. better at bowman i say. they can ask the front desk there and stay air conditioned" 

Any idea how early he should get there?
Nope. Mike is studying now and probably won't hear from him til very late. If Travis has time tomorrow, maybe he can ask around. I've been to All Saints and saw the blue van pull up to the parking lot around 7:45 for an 8 am mass.

Final test today before comp. One failure. Ave is 3.3. Everyone is on mandatory study hours tonight and over the weekend in preparation for comp. Wishing everyone at 1131 A lots of luck!

Woohoo.... will be thinking of Class A, and especially Mike! Hope the studying this weekend is effective and they are able to stay focused!
