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."

We've got a sailor too!!! 20 min call...he's calling back too. Justin is tired but did fine. His division, he says, is the senior division (81) so they're being seperated from the recruits. He said he could've been in track (his sisters are star runners in track so they'll be happy to hear that) because he was 1 of the top 20 runners. Woohoo, ladies, 7 days and we'll have our hands on our guys! Congrats to all.

Hi Ingrid. I heard a blip on the news but then missed the story line. It said "snow in Pensacola". Have you heard that? Unreal if it's true-although I remember one year snow in Orlando.

Laura, I went into the Army/Navy store last week and got a Navy flag. It's on OBT right beside the recruiters office. I'm sure they'd have shirts. I didn't really look around. Also, if you want to order one, on the right side of this page you'll see where you can buy N4M apparel or you could also go to www.navymoms.com. Hope that helps. Yes, Pam, it is great to see the group grow. Do you think we'll find a big enough place for our next get together? Wouldn't it be wonderful if we have that concern. Keep warm, everybody, tonight. I'm cold (we refuse to turn on the heat and help out Progress Energy with getting more $-haha).

Absolutely, Laura. I wish you could've come to our get together last weekend so that we could've met you. My son, also, PIR 1/3/09-he's in Div 81-ship 13. What is your son in? We had such a great time at our get together thanks to Diane and Ingrid for organizing and all the other moms for being there. They were of great help to me. I look forward to meeting you next week and seeing you thereafter. Keep warm in IL!
