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."

^^^^BATTLESTATIONS:THEIR FINAL TEST^^^^
This is their final test and they are then sailors! Here is the link that explains it all. Be sure to go to the bottom of the link page and read what Craig (retired Navy, son/nephew active duty) added:
http://www.navyformoms.com/group/pir562011/forum/topics/battlestati...
They will go through with their brother division.
About 2 weeks before PIR, be asking your SR when their division will be going through. We cannot post Battlestations dates on the public boards, but can private message them. Please send it to me so I can get a schedule started. I will "Message to Group" it out to all.
Check out BattleStations on www.youtube.com. Just put in "Battlestations 21 by CNN." Very interesting!
HOOYAH!

This is getting confusing. I guess it didn't happen last night since no calls today. My son (038) never wrote when it would actually be, just that it was coming up (last letter was dated Dec. 29). If someone has updated information, can it be sent out please.

The date on the message was wrong. The date for 37/38 is coming up. Just sent you a message Anne :-)

ANNELISA: So sorry that the new info didn't go out...I was scared to send more out since we were getting conflicting dates. NavySpouse has the date that 037/038 are supposed to go, from what we know. But we still aren't sure how many will be going that night (only 4 divisions can go)...very confusing as I'm getting conflicting info from the ladies on dates. Just remember this is an overnight drill, so the I'm a Sailor calls will come in the next afternoon.
