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."

He's looking forward to a break from B.C. He stayed out of trouble there (I think the only thing I heard he got punished for was zeros without slashes..). Whats 'qualification'.

Looks like in a few weeks my son will head to A school in Pensacola (his PIR is next week). His school wont start for a month or so. Before that qualifications??

Rus is 26 years old soon to be 27. He also has to go to C-school before he can start. I guess.Reserves Full Time Support is the same as being in the Navy. All of his pay is the same as Navy. Rus was going to Navy but there were no spots open and he scored really high on his testing they talked him into doing Navy Reserve FTS, they said only difference was his pay came from different account.

He is reserve f.t.s, my hubby is driving with him to San Diego, so he can take his car and then hubby is flying back.
Flights are really cheap. That is a good thing. He is getting married soon and they have decided to get married at his duty station. So we will be going there sometime.
Pat-Does your Jenn live on base?Rus is hoping with his age they will take in consideration. He is only an E-3.
Thanks ladies for helping me out. Rus will love to do the wine tasting.
