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 10/29/10's! The new year is on it's way into spring time and with it A'school for my Sailor. He has been in for a few weeks after a delay from lost paperwork but all is good to go so far.
How are things going for you and your Sailor so far?

Just found this group! My sailor was ship 7 div 350. He has been in Pensacola since Oct. 30 as he was grad and go. He is just loving it. Has been home for almost two weeks and is headed back in a couple of days. Said he it was nice to be home but he is ready to get back and do some more swimming. Hope you all had a great Holiday!

Justin is now in his Air Crew candidate school, he is doing well, and having fun as well as learning about life lesson of being independent of mom but also being in the Navy...I hope everyone is doing well.

Nathan is doing pretty good. He had to go back to GL yesterday to get his orders. He is supposed to leave for A-school today. He will be at Corey Station and depending on how long it takes to class up he should be there for about 6 months. He is not happy about being away from my sailor for so long. They are hoping they can both come home for Christmas but who knows if that could really happen. I hope so. I know the holidays will be very hard for his family and having him home would sure help.
