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."

Sharon, we have a friend who reports to BC on Tuesday, 2/11. I wonder if they'll be in the same group.
TwinSailorsMom - I can't believe what you just wrote. How traumatic to have your life turned upside down at such a young age. You can bet he'll be in our thoughts and prayers.

One of my friends came to visit and her grandson was at BC, bound for the nuke program. She was so excited for him. He suddenly got a tremendous pain in his thigh, while he was having his wisdom teeth pulled, odd. The checked him out and was told he had broken his femur. He was put in the hospital and it turns out he has now been released from the Navy and has Cancer. So sad. But you know if he had not been where he was it might not have been caught? Pray for that family please.

Pay attention to the rope work, Steve the sailor on the left.
Please pray for my Dad who is having surgery today, he cracked the head of his femur and they are putting in screws to keep it from separating, might put a kink in his ranch move.
