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."

I hope everyone is having a good week! I am so excited that we are at the halfway point! So looking forward to the BIG DAY but more so, I am anxiously awaiting to hug my SR again. I know will see how our SR's have "grown into their own" thoughout BC butI have a million dollar question for us as parents. How has this experience changed us? Any thoughts?

Hi Everyone,
Finally found this discussion, Thanks jms93mom. I have been waiting for mail this week, have'nt received any yet. Hope to get one. I did get a phone call from him on the 1st. He was also sick, said most of them were. nobody wants to go get checked because they are afraid of falling behind. It really is a shame that we can't use there names. It would be nice to be able to ask them if they knew each other. Finally made reservations for the PIR. I was almost too late. Not much open anymore. We are staying at Residence Inn Gurnee, anyone else? Also VIP to Sarge. Hope to meet some of you there.

Even though they can write Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays, they only get picked up from them on Sundays and mailed out on Monday. You will note in your letters the different dates they wrote their letters.
