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 hear that the dream sheet comes and goes. Maybe a need of the navy thing, when they have more need the dream sheet comes back.
I invited another IT mom I know who has a sailor daughter to join on here for another perspective from someone she had a sailor go through and out onto IT things.

I hear different thing now but when my son graduated if you were one of the op three in the class they got to fill out a dream sheet with three choices of where they would like o be sent. My son was third. The two ahead of him got his top choice, Naples. He did get his second choice, a destroyer. He is stationed on the USS Bainbridge out of Norfolk. He said they can be stationed almost a nowhere as their job is everywhere, that includes the White House. Pretty exciting.

Hi Donna... My son just started IT A School. Did your son find it difficult? Do you know WHERE C school is, my son did not know at this point. Your question is good and something I look forward to learning. I also love the patch. Hope I can find one that says Center for Information Dominance. My son likes that... :) Thank you.

So, my son just arrived at Corry Station on 8/25/13. His rating is IT. He tells me that it will be one week or so and he will start classes. He has called twice already and says that he likes it there so far. God Bless all of Our Sailors ~

Hey Stephanie Ship02 Div 917. My son is there now and I can share with you what he has told me. Because of OPSEC, not sure how much should be said in open forum. I sent you a friend request and will gladly answer your question in a PM! Just know he will be in Pensacola a long time.
