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."

Posted by dee win Ship 009 Div 393 on September 10, 2013 at 5:41pmHi all!
Hi all! My boy called and I got 2 letters! He sounds good. Sounds like I am in the same boat as ya'll. He should go to Pensacola after PIR but I don't know when. My hubby wants to get a hotel close to the airport this time instead of close to the base. Any suggestions?? Any idea on Sarge's get together for our PIR?? Thanks

Hey guys, I am new-ish to this and my boyfriend is 09/393. I have heard a LOT about a little kid they call "Asia Man" who is actually named "Haugh". I would love to thank his family and loved ones if I could get the chance. This kid has made my baby's life better. I'm going to take liberty here and call him his best friend. I'd love to talk to you guys :)
Also, if you guys have heard anything about Winstead, that's my baby and I'd love to see what people think of him and how others say he's doing, if anyone has heard lol -
