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."

No - he sent her an e-mail also saying - "one more week"
I was told by another Navy Mom that everyone passed unless they were ASMOED - no news is good news as they say

Sandman713 - Good to meet you at the Meet and Greet! Would've loved to have met more of the N4M's there. Hope all is well with you and your Sailor. Let's keep in touch!
I'm sorry to say that we had to say goodbye to our Sailor the next morning at the airport - 3 a.m. came mighty early! He's safe at A School, though and loving the ability to text and call again. -
