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."

Kathy is right. Go to Fox Sox and get the Strykers. That's what I got me son. The moleskin is a must and tell him to run! On their first "shake out" run the day before they moved into Devil Doc Hall, 3 guys lagged behind and they ALL had to do flutter kicks and push-ups. Side note...these same 3 guys got rolled back to the next FMTB class because they couldn't keep up with the physical stuff. My son had workout buddies and they worked put every day before FMTB started.

Hi Pjpckmcov, my son arrived at CP a couple weeks ago. He is also working in the clinic giving shots, drawing blood and the sort. LOTS of PT! He will also be doing fmtb at the end of April. He seems to be adjusting well there.
