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."

So I found out what "sticks" is. Its flags without the flags lol .Its just training with the sticks.As I recall she did say that but it slipped my mind with everything else she was saying, I was trying to soak in so much, like the mere sound of her voice in general!

Well I wish you all well :-)

@ its the jordan 

I hope you got your call!

@ sesalle I'm Happy you got your call, way to go 50/50 My daughter passed to one down 2 to go she said 2 academic and 2 physical. Good Luck to our SRs!

@Sunymom Yay! You got a call too! My daughter likes the chow to she says she is always hungry lol :-) 

I did get my call! it was so wonderful to hear his voice!! Does anyone have an SR named Jarred? My SR said he had gotten to know him pretty well :)

@itsthejordan I'm so glad you got your call! :-)  

I sure wished more loved ones got on this site from our div, like the other div.

Btw where is everyone staying , hotel wise?

We're staying at the Courtyard by Marriott.  We're booked till Sunday but still haven't heard when my daughter is flying out for her A school in Pensacola.  Wish I had some idea so we knew how to plan.  I didn't get a chance to ask her because when she called Friday night, my cell phone was in my purse and I missed her call!!!!  I'm so bummed!!  She left me a short voice mail and I've played that over and over about 10 times.  She ended up calling her brother so she had someone to talk to.  I'm praying for another call soon!

We booked the Marriot Courtyard...hopefully a little nicer than some others and larger rooms I think. I just did not know how many nights depending on Monday being a holiday that weekend.

We're staying at the extended stay , and staying till Memorial Day.

We are staying Holiday Inn Express. Arriving on Wednesday and leaving the next Tuesday. We plan on going to Sarge's meet and greet, on Thursday evening.

I should probably change my flight plans for another day or two just in case. Not worried about the extra cost, just don't want to miss valuable time. Well I hope the cost is not too bad as I did not listen and booked tickets that penalize for changes, but the other type tickets were 3x's more!  We will do a meet & greet as well to hopefully meet everyone I've been chatting with!

 

I sure wish they would catch a shot of our kiddos in Div 928 marching, or doing something, anything. I Keep searching on the RTC Facebook page and see many other daily photos they are catching and posting, but none of this Div.

Hey Ladies add Navy moms 5-25-12 pir on facebook :-) see ya on there!   I'm Kat:-)
