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."

Thank you all for the heads up regarding the surprise phone call! I was getting worried because we had not received the arrival call and had not heard anything yet, so I stayed home all day Sunday and was very grateful to have been there to answer when my son called :). He is in div 936 ship 02. We are in CT and have just found tix from LGA to ORD for $197 on AA for 7/16-18 if anyone is heading from the east coast.

I finally received my letter yesterday and his PIR date is 7/17 so I am in the right group. I do have a question... when do we know for sure where they are going for A school. His recruiter didn't give us much info so I am a bit lost. If anyone knows, please let me know.

Rita 2912, welcome! Thank you beyond words for your prayers for all of our young men and women. I'm new to this, learning lots every day. Reading previous comments and recommendations of links has helped tremendously. Listening to music, The Prayer, at the moment which of course makes me tear up but is good, too:
I pray you'll be our eyes.
And watch us where we go.
And help us to be wise
In times when don't know,
Let this be our prayer,
when we lose our way,
lead us to the place,
guide us with your grace
To a place where we'll be safe.
