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."

Congratulations to you all! Our SR (daughter) has been in SEPS for three weeks. Her medical waiver was denied. She is appealing...and we are remaining positive. We so wish we would be there at PIR with you all! We don't know where the Lord is leading us, but we are remaining faithful!

SR Holmes is still in the fight...we can report! We couldn't bear to read to much knowing PIR was on 4 May (congrats to all). She had Captain's Mast yesterday morning at 0930; told her she must report at 0800. BLUF: The Commander, RTC, wants to keep her in the Navy! He still must discuss the medical options with her, but said multiple times he was impressed and wanted to keep her...thumping on her file on the desk. One could not hope for anything more than this! The Lord does answer prayers! This is outstanding! Could still be sent home, but if the CO "has your back" what else is there!

I am so happy to hear that she is still in the fight!! We will continue to pray for her. And I agree, if the CO has her back, that is a very POSITIVE thing. Has your daughter been given a new PIR date to aim for?
