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."

that's true about charter flights but my son didn't think he would be on a charter. He was told that everyone who's flying will be wakened at 1 am on saturday and be at the airport by 2 am to wait for their flights.

Well since all of you have fab plans, and we'll be driving thru the night Wed, we'll meet at PIR. My husband wants to go to Sarge's and we will and since we won"t know anyone, maybe we"ll leave early. I'll want to relax, unwind and go for a swim too. Then it's a very early wake up call and the fun begins!

My husband is driving us to P.I.R. by the time we get to P.I.R. our faces will be stuck in smile mode for a few days... LOL He is already planing trips to C.S.P.F. ( Corry Station Pensacola Florida ) so we can spend some weekends with our SAILOR!!!! HAVE A GREAT TIME @ P.I.R.& I WISH YOU & YOUR SR THE BEST IN LIFE....

Got another letter today!!!! March 6TH they had the gas chamber and boy did their eyes get it lol... The 7TH was Final phase Personnel inspection & the DIV have practiced 6 times to help each other out... (nice team work 94) they should have done firefighting & test 3 by now so we are just waiting on BST21.... He said he is known as BROCK LESNAR because everyone including RDC's & other PETTY OFFICERS think he resembles him... LMAO... He was held back for not getting his chain of directions / chain of command, "not attention to detail thank goodness" He ended his letter saying he can't wait to see us and that he looks spiffy.... lol
