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."

Uhhhh my version of Light Duty! But I thought she said LOD... she was in ship 6 for injured recruits for a day or two, then on light duty. She hated Light Duty, had to go to the front of the line to eat (why that is bad, I don't know) she had to sit out everything :(

No.... I would think they DO get to call later! Keep by your phone, just in case!!

Tiff did say that two would not get to call from her group, not sure if it was 327 or 328 but one was a boy and one was a girl, they both had watch :( Maybe that is where she is reenie!
Congrats ProudNM!! that is awesome!!
Jessica.... Happy Birthday to your boy!!! Is he going to the "Girlie Bars tonight" hahaha OH.. wait, he's been old enough to go over there already, right?
I forgot to ask Tiff about the RDCs... she did say they were pretty nice, except yesterday they got yelled at... her words "We were standing in line for chow and the graduation sailors went by and we were looking out the window at them and got yelled at" hahaha I said, it's natural to look outside!! LOL
I wish I knew who "B" mom is... just to let you know, he is helping her and I THANK you! LOL

I just got a letter from my SR, HE MADE CEREMONIAL GUARD!!! He says "I feel real good right now!" They had a drill assessment, and"their playing with our heads and wont tell us how we did, but Ma, it's all a mind game. I still feel real good!"
I'm one ProudNvyMom!;)
Now can I get a phone call, I've been carrying a list of questions in my pocket for 2 1/2 wks now.

RE-POST
I know alot of groups dwindle down after PIR but I want to keep up with everyone. Remember that we will have the opportunity to give back "pay it forward" to newcomers on N4M. I would like to gather everyone's email address, but NOT on the public forum. I guess the best way would be to private msg me your email address and I will make a group file for N4M 10/01/10 PIR Alumni- and then send everyone the email list. If you don't want everyone in our N4M PIR group to have your email, then let me know in your priv msg to me. I will sort it out. Thanks!!
