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."

I would be interested in meeting for lunch or dinner. I'm in school so dinner may be the best option, unless I don't have classes that day.

Craig, your DEP site was a lifesaver and still is. I have the day to day bootcamp info bookmarked and refer to it all the time. It's keeping me sane during BC.
I would vote for a dinner as I am a teacher and don't get lunch, unless I am on break. Would love to meet you all. I would also be interested in seeing Buckley. I grew up in Denver when it was one base after another and now they are decommissioned. I helped on the clean up on a couple of them back in my Haz Waste days.

Hello CO-TwinSalorsMom. We live in Centennial. My son is stationed in P'Cola! He is a nurse at Naval Hospital Pensacola. If your son needs some help, have him look-up my son, Aaron. He works the med-surg unit.

Hi Bridgette--Welcome to N4M. This site will be your best friend for the next few months and your going to meet so many wonderful people. There is a link I had my daughter read before she left for BC. She sent it to everyone and I am still referring to it. I hope it helps you and your son.
