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."

Information
As our recruits get furthur into bootcamp I thought that maybe some of the Moms in Division 818 PIR 9/2 would like to get more specific information. I'm brand new at this but thought I'd try and maybe some more knowledgable Mom's will help us.

HE CALLED!!!!!!!!!!! HE CALLED!!!!!!!!!!!! HE CALLED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The Navy had a Live Feed of the Homecoming--you actually can go to their live feed and see the video from it, but it wasn't very informative and was from the perspective of the ship coming in, not from the pier seeing it coming in. Anyway, I got to hear them announce "the cruise is completed. At ease." That was worth it!!!!

hahahah - I have to tell yall a weird story... Im all about "Right Time Right place" Im weird about that and I pray each day to be where Im suppose to be when Im suppose to be there..not one second to soon or too late.... Right Place Right Time! So anyhoooo... I was mailing a care package out to Afgan and I needed to go to the Dollar Store for two things... so I remembered the one thing and I was like saying to God and the angels okay what the heck was the other thing... ugggggg so I was just walking through the store hoping my stupid memory would come back and tell me..... nope nothing... so I kept walking... I was on one side of the store and suddently this young lady walked past me.......... looked directly at me and smiled at me and said one word and only one........ "soap" and she walked away.. no I did not know her, and I was talking in my mind not out loud... anway... guess what that other thing was I had forgotten????????? yep you guessed it...... soap! WEIRD hahahaha I felt like the good Lords angels were actually concerned with me and my comings and goings.. gee I wish I had that faith every day!!! But still it made me feel good especially considering all that is currently going on right now with Huggy and B man.....
