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."

Wooo-Hooo got a call today!!!

She's ready to finish - and move on. Sounded positive and happy, we laughed talked for about 30 minutes.
It was just wonderful to have a phone call where you don't feel rushed in 5 minutes. We spent well over a half hour on the phone this time. Got the same news, gas chamber on Tuesday. It was great! Unfortunately, she missed her brother by about two minutes. He was home this weekend and had literally just left when she called. Still, it was AWESOME!!!
We can print out our parking tickets now...... use the password from your "Grad-Package".

Can't wait to see everyone at the "Meet-In-Greet". :-)
It was so good to talk to her, and I put her on speaker phone because we actually were having her brother a birthday party. She hasn't seen him since Christmas and we all just found out him and his wife are gonna have a baby... My SR was so excited to talk to him=))) it was really good=) I can not wait to go to the meet and greet. Its gonna be nice to meet you all in person. In my SR's letter she said somehow it even makes it a little easier on them knowing we are all keeping in touch =))) Pray for higher scores on their test Monday, so they have less time in the chambers on Tuesday=))) GO 10/267!!!! =D

=D See.. that's just so cool! She said she has made the best life time friends over the last few weeks! Its so awesome how the come together and work as a team... As a Family!!! ;-)
in today's letter she said they march next to each other due to their height and they were "volunteered" to take height and weight measurements when they first got there and had to restock bras and stuff, lol
LOL:) that's too funny! I bet these girls are gonna know more about each other than they do any of their friends from high school:-) I can't wait to meet everyone! I am so very thankful for this website and all of my fellow parents of 10/267!!! I think we all have some pretty wonderful soon-to-be Sailors =D
