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 heading to Pennsacola as well (I think). He's training to be an Aviation Rescue Swimmer. He's so excited and so ready to go. Not a bit nervous - so unlike me! LOL

Hello Debtom! I noticed the closer it gets to his departure date the more talkative he's gotten which for my son means he's getting a little nervous! LOL Wishing your son safe travels and the best as well. Please keep in touch and hopefully we can meet at PIR! Enjoy this last week with him! :)

My boyfriend also has an AIRR contract. He graduated from boot camp on Aug 2nd and just classed up so he is in his second week of AirCrew school. How long was it before your son classed up for RSS? or has he yet? We're just curious on a lot of things still. Do you know of anybody will AIRR contracts that have already been stationed?
