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."

Hello everyone. I'm new to the group. My boyfriend graduates boot camp on 9/24. I just figured I would check this page out to see if I can learn more about being a CS as that will be what he'll be going to a school for. He is in the reserves so I'm hoping he'll be home for a while after a school. Does anyone have someone as a reserve CS?

I guess it is like when they were in school. I would learn a lot from their friends! Richard leaves tomorrow for ten days and then he will be docked for a while before heading back to sea.

I asked about C school. It is a fifteen day class to learn more about the "Nuts and Bolts" of running the galley. It's not required, but looks good if you are trying to get E-4.
