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."

Thanks vettespace! I enjoyed your pictures. I tried to see if I could see Laurence, but I guess when everyone is dressed the same, even when you're 6'4", you blend in with the crowd.

I just added a photo album of the CP FMTB Graduation on June 18, 2010
I've got higher resolution photos if anyone's interested.

My daughter flies back today. I can't wait to see her pictures!
Wade, I'm glad to hear your son made it safe. Laurence has settled in New Orleans. Now for their new adventure. I hope all goes well with all our boys!

I heard all about the graduation. My daughter and her dad went. I keep bugging her to post some pictures.
Laurence arrived in New Orleans today. He sounded relieved to be out of training and now on to the real work!

Graduation this morning was great! It was the largest FMST class ever to graduate at CP FMTB! I haven't counted the number of grads in the program yet, but it's close to 300. I've got pictures of each of the three platoons lined up that I'll post when I get home Monday. Everyone looked great! I just watched the DVD that my son got and it covers the training very well.

I'm flying out tomorrow for this friday's graduation. My son said it started at 9:30am I believe. He said to be there by 8:30am, but I'm planning to get there earlier than that. I haven't confirmed this start time with any other source, so I'm going to try and confirm today. Congratulations on your son's graduation.

M4s, my thoughts and prayers are with you. Let us know how you're son is doing. It's tough being away from them, especially when they aren't feeling well. Hang in there mom!

Mary Alice, M4S is correct. HR is an E-1, which is the same level as SR.

M4S, If it makes you feel any better, when I was talking to Laurence, I could hear him talking to Steven, and he sounded good. I hope he is doing better!

I was just so glad to hear Laurence's voice and that all was ok, I forgot to ask about the eight mile hike. He posted on FB that he was going to work the mud run. He said that this week will be boring. Just turning in gear and paper work.
