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."

Daughter is Ship 12, Div. 247. After reading posts everywhere It looks like they are scheduled for BS *(OPSEC). We are driving in and since it is a near 12 hour drive from my location, we will be on the road when we receive the "I am a Sailor" call.
Just received a letter. Ship 12, Div 247, last week did firefighting and gas chamber. This week they have final PFA and she concludes with "and then BattleStations". Prayers for all, including family.
*(Battlestations date removed. RTC considers this ship movement)

From what I understand Battlestation is Monday or Tuesday for this unit so after 2pm on Monday or Tuesday everyone will get the I'm a Sailor phone call.

Just got short call from daughter 247. She barely passed PFA. The ones that did not pass will do again tomorrow. They are encouraging each other. All she wants Friday is spicy food, a big juicy hamburger and all the time she wants to eat it. Happy mom right now. The call was less than a minute and I do not complain.
