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."

Hey ladies.... hang in there different sites get busy and then quiet... dont give up and be sure and ask the SWCC moms/dads your questions... Ill tell you this too... spec ops/warefare sites tend to not be soooo busy because as you know NONE of these sites are secure... and the deeper into Spec Warfare they go the quieter you will have to be. That does not mean you can not ask general questions but the personal stuff will have to be on messages that are secure. That is why that site is very quiet most of the time.
caran/Bonnie.. they do get busy and they dont call as much... does not mean they are not thinking about home... but they are gearing up for a whole world of hades to come down upon them.... so be patient... Oh and Bonnie hahahah use initials no names hahaha only... I know I know... its a pain in the ass and frusterating to double and triple check yourselves each time you post something... A mom reminded me of an old Navy Saying once..... Lose lips, sink ships... I very quickly deleted what I thought was a harmless post.......so I said then why am I even bothering to be on here if I have to be sooo careful... Easy answer.... I need my girlfriends even if I have to guard what I say or how I say it!!!!!!!!
Okay sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo B called a bit ago... HE PASSED whoop whoop!!!! His team was not so lucky as a whole but will have a chance to re-test tomorrow! B has a small written and some kinda PT tomorrow and he was not concerned about either of those! The team will have a study group tonight to go over and try to assist the guys with what the did wrong.

I notice there's not much action on the SWCC for moms page. I guess we're getting what we need here. :)

Here's hoping my son starts calling after he gets his phone charged today. :( What's wrong with that boy!? Does he think he's all grown up or something!? :) I do see his posts on FB though so at least I know he's alive and well...

I have never seen my son with any breakout on his face at all hardly ever. Maybe a zit or two.... but at christmas... he was all broken out with acne quite noticably?? So that was weird! Stress, sweat I dunno.. but I had never seen it before.
