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."

My SR, also 339 called. He said, they're doing well... but still have a ways to go in teamwork. That they continue to get "beat" for a fews actions. I sure hope they can get their act together soon. He also said, food was good & he's estimating that he's gained 10 lbs or so since he's been there. He just barely made it in because of his weight (low).

My brother (Div 339) was able to call home yesterday too! He called my parents house (no answer, left message). then my mom's cell (again no answer, my parents were working, so he left another message). He sounded a bit homesick in that message. Then he called again at night and got to speak to my mom and dad for a little bit. They said he sound much better and was happy he got to talk to you them. And they of course were so happy to talk to him! I cant wait for their graduation, one month to go!
