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."

Hi all. :)
I know I saw a few moms out there today who mentioned their sons were in class 1101 starting in November. It'll be here before we know it!
For those of you who don't know, I'm Aaron's girlfriend. He's an EM who graduated A school in September. :)
I can't wait to get to know all of you, and hopefully meet you all in April! :)

No invite here either! I think all the sailors are ready for a break!!! They deserve it!!! God Bless!!

 

No invites for me either.  Nate called last week wanting the license plate#.  He called today. Did well on Tues. and today's test.  One more test next Friday and comps the following Tues.  He said he may go to the air show at the Air Force Base. Hope he does, it will be a nice change of pace! 

We rec'd our invitations today (Sat)!

 

 

I checked the mail today after Colleen posted that she got hers... None for me today. :( 

However, I did get my tax refunds in the mail... :)

We got ours also on Sat... I was a little bit surprised though!!!! I thought it would be a little more fancy than it was..

9 academic days left!

Hoping for my invite to come in the mail tomorrow!! :)

I hope my comes as well today.  Just to have it in my hand will be wonderful!
Still no invitation :(  I sure hope they didn't send it to the physical address. I'll never get it!  For some reason the mail carrier dosen't understand - "past the 5th cattle guard, it's the 3 gate after the 2nd creek"  The UPS driver can find me, but not the mail carrier. Go figure!

No invitation for me today either. :( 
My mom said are you sure they aren't going to send it to his mom? I was like NO! He had them send one to BOTH addresses!!

Oh well, it'll come. :) 

Got our Invite!!!!  We are sooooo excited and proud as i am sure all of you are too.  Is there some way we can identify ourselves at the ceremony?  I would like to meet you.
Still no invite :(  If I didn't know he was doing so well I would be worried.

No invite for me today either. :(

Just think, next week at this time they'll be all done with Power School. No more study hours, nothing to do but wait and see results!! :)

Any more thoughts on a get together next week?
