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! My Cody loves it too! I'm not sure if he's at Corry Station or NASP but I thought I'd check in with everyone else on here!
I agree BCmom-the room is so very clean I had to double check to make sure he wasn't taking a pic of maybe a brochure picture or something! Ha!!

I'm going to have to ask Mitch to take a pic of his room and send it. I hadn't even thought of that. He has been super super busy since he arrived in Pensacola. Get to see him in 2 weeks - yay!!

Yeah for you Smile09! I wish I could get down there to see Cody but his A-school isn't for that long, he's saying 26 days, so I really can't.
How long is Mitch's A-school? Cody's going for ABH, not sure what that means really. :)

He says his A school is 28 days. But I've heard that they could be there 2 months for AD (Aviation Machinist Mate). Regardless, we are going to take advantage that he's in the same state with us now and go visit over a weekend. If we get to go there again, great, or he may get 14 days leave after A school. Everything is up in the air!

Codersmom...maybe our Cody's are together and it was a picture of someone else's room..LOL...I will try to believe it was really my Cody's room....but very hard to imagine after bawling as I left his dorm room at Tx A & M! I believe in miracles :D

Too funny! And I agree, after seeing the change in my, normally flighty Cody, I believe in miracles too!!!! (I would love to send my 8 yr old, maybe they can get him to clean his room too!) LOL
@Smile09-I think that's so wonderful that your son is in the same state as you are. I would be setting up a visit too! Unfortunately, I'm in MO. so it's a bit of a travel.
Cody said something about his schooling could be up to 4 mos. long. I wonder why the have such a wide gap in the time frame...But he does say that he gets 2 weeks leave after A school also. I'm really looking forward to that! Then I will have him in the same state as me! :)
