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."

No problem NavyAunt. Tell him to open up the chat window, that's where we all hang out. Dan was a coat checker too!

Congratulation Dawn, and Dom. How long is ET school?
Our DVD quality was pretty crappy towards the end and they cut my favorite part! (where they turned around after removing their coats)

Sailor Wifey, that is GREAT news!!! I know you are doing the Happy Dance! Are you packed?
Navy Aunt, My son was set back in A school after one day! He got sick and since he was SIQ, he missed class and a test. The good news, it happened on day 2, so, he only has to repeat INDOC and day one. He has said that no matter how sick he is, he will go to class. As for my other son, I am waiting to hear how he did on test 12 and when he will start clinicals.
The wait from BC and A school can be SO LONG! I guess they need to wait for enough to make a full class, but it leaves the sailors with TOO much time on their hands!

Navy Aunt, let Kanga123 know that they get their BCGs in about an hour. It sounded to me like they are at one of the one hour eye doctors. As for the contacts, they get to keep them but can only wear them for pictures and PIR.

B&L, Congratulations! I know you are proud! Both of my boys are together in GL. Since they are in different A schools, they don't see a lot of each other, but I think they enjoy being together for the short time before they are shipped out.
