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 son is ship 14 div 103 and will be going to Pensacola. He spoke about his bunk mate who has been helping him with his swollen knee and said something about sports medicine training. Hopefully he will tell me more in his letter. Grateful for any help that is given to help him make it through. Anyone else in 103 who might know who his bunk mate is?

Hi Britmum - my son is headed to Pensacola after BC too! He is the Starboard Watch Section Leader -- please ask your son to say "hello" if they don't already know one another! So cool! : ) My son used to race motocross so he knows about swollen knees -- but hasn't had any sports medicine training!

My SR is in 103 and said in his phone call he is the Weapons PO. He will be headed to Pensacola for A School after PIR. Hoping he's getting to know some of your SRs! He's generally pretty quiet.
