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."

FTLW, It was OC spray, the last part of the Security Reaction Force - Basic (SRF-B) Class, a training class that is voluntary. Nope, not for me. LOL

Hello All!
"Similarly, encourage the young men to be
self-controlled. In everything, set them an example
by doing what is good. In your teaching show integrity,
seriousness and soundness of speech that cannot
be condemned, so that those who oppose you may
be ashamed because they have nothing bad to
say about us."
Titus 2:7-8

A little slow on introducing myself to this group. Real life gets in the way of the fun life sometimes. :)
My son graduated BC in April of 2012. He is an ET3, or an Electronics Technician, Petty Officer Third Class, but also had schooling in IT (somebody has to do it when the ITs can't figure it out. Sorry CatMom LOL). He is currently forward-deployed.
He stayed in GL for A School, went to C School in San Diego, has been back to San Diego for training on additional equipment since C School.
The ship he is attached to is a Whidbey Island-class landing ship, part of the Peleliu Amphibious Ready Group (ARG), Squadron 11.
This is my son. :)
Memorize your Sailors ears, hands, chin, nose, and the back of their head, they may be the only thing you catch sight of when they are out in the fleet.
