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."

Good Morning! Yes, many are amazed at the handwriting of the SRs, which is mandated by the RDCs! They must be able to write where others can read! Sadly, my son's didn't last after Bootcamp.... :-(
Lauuren: The Livestream is of the PIR services each Fri morning. Look up above on this page, to the right, under PAGES and you will see the Livestream info.

Good Morning all!!! I was looking through all the posts and was wondering if anyone had a daughter in Ship 02 Div 937? My girl, Jess is a flag carrier and after watching the live stream yesterday, now I really cannot wait for 7/25. Also, anyone else staying at Residence Inn for that weekend. Would be nice to put faces to names don't you think.
I hope you all have a wonderful weekend, it's supposed to be gorgeous here in NJ. Just 41 days to go until we get to see our babies!!! Yeehaw
