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."

AJ: Don't give up on her yet! I'm commenting with her. I think her son may not have made the run yet, and he still will have chances to do that before BStations. Another mind game to get him to really try hard! So she could still be there! Trust me....been down this path before with other recruits!

Asking for some special prayers please ....... for hurstmichelle and her son from Division 305. She received a phone call yesterday that her son will not be graduating 9/10. I don't know why but learned from her M&G posting that she and her daughter will not be there now. It has to be such a disappointment for him to be so close and have something go wrong. Bless them with a swift resolution that will bring him to graduation very, very soon. I have asked her via our Div 305 group how we can support her and her son and will let you know if I hear anything. In the meantime, hold them in your thoughts and prayers. Thanks.
