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."

Any opinions out there on pediatric primary care providers at NWSC?

I'd like to pick one that it more health promotion, than intervention based, or at least won't think I'm crazy for being naturally minded. Any thoughts?

Tx Nuke Mom, yup! both aaronsgirl and I have loved ones to be classed up for Power next month. Welcome to the club! I'm excited my boyfriend will be able to get off t-track. He feels so unproductive. Though I'm not looking forward to the intense study hours and trying to help from miles away.
Comment by TxNukeMom on October 13, 2010 at 4:26pm
Hi Ladies!
Just checking to see if there are any others with sailors starting power school beginning of Nov. My son was just informed he'll be classed up in Nov instead of February like he had planned. I know this'll be a tough school, so looking for support from a fellow classmates loved one!!! Becky

JLD- If you're a member of "Nuke Moms," check out the discussion I started for Power School Class 1101. And if you're not a member, then you should definitely join and THEN check out the discussion. :)

Thanks NicksMom, sorry it took so long to respond.
Comment by Emily-aaronsgirl11 on October 6, 2010 at 10:20am
Casey- If we eventually ended up on the same base (or near by because I think your hubby is subs?), you'd definitely have to teach me how to play WoW... Just so I could keep Aaron's account going while he's on deployment ;)

hello all! I found this awesome website for a christmas gift idea. I asked my boyfriend (without trying to give away the idea) if he could have another dogtag on his dogtags and he said yes as long as it was the same. Well, this website:

http://dogtagcompanions.ca/index1.html

lets you send in a picture and they'll engrave it on a dogtag! I know some of the sailors have pictures taped on their dogtags but this would last so much longer.
