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."

Debra-congrats to your sailor. that is awesome.
Just curious- How long does that take to be an E-4? my sailor is still in AE classes, but he is an E-3. Have your sailors been out of AE classes for awhile? Where are some of your sailors stationed? Do they work on certain planes or helocoptors? I have no idea about this either. Please give me info? I know absolutely nothing and would love to know more.

My sailor is Navy Reserves FTS, so someone said he wouldn't get a pick of duty stations- He would go to a Navy Reserve Training Base. Does anybody know where these are at? or have any info about FTS. Anything you could tell me would be awesome. My sailor is an AE, grad PIR in July, He is in pensacola for his A school roght now and will grad. on Jan. 16th. Thank You

Thanks, Pat.

Julie, that is not very encouraging. My son is going to be an AE and he graduates from BC on 12/17. I guess we should prepare him for a wait, once he gets to Pensacola.

I think OJT is what I meant...I am so new you see...I get confused with the terminology...lol

Lynne- I'm sorry..my sailor is Navy Reserves FTS so I think he is in a different program, thats why he doesn't get to pick orders. He hasn't said anything about going to C school, so I have no idea about that.
Does anyone know about C school or where they are at-and how long that takes? My sailor is getting married and his GF has to do an intership somewhere and we just have no idea where should be applying for them.
