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."

Will our recruits be able to stay at the hotel with us? I just made reservations but am not sure if I needed to get her a bed, too, or if she has to go back to her ship each night to sleep.

They have to go back each evening by a specific time.

Hi everyone, I hope you all had a good weekend. I just wanted to send a reminder that I still have a few ribbon orders that I have not received payment for. All the ribbons that have been paid for have been shipped. It is not too late to order or pay for your order if you have already sent the info. Just let me know by sending me a message on this site or an email to uniquememorymakers@yahoo.com Thanks so much :-)

Has anyone else's SR's told them about the shenanigans 007's been getting into since they arrived?
My guy has been telling me all sorts of goofy things. I'd love to have met them all before RTC and meet them all after to see the difference! Ha.

Haven't heard anything like that, lol. I know my son said that it was tough at the beginning but now they are all working together pretty well

LOL - maybe what a son shares with his mom is different than what a guy shares with his fiancee. I haven't heard of any shenanigans either. My son did say that there are some really funny guys that he has met.

That is probably true. :p Don't want to worry the mom, right?
My guy hasn't said too much about the guys (or women, I guess?) that he's with, just talked about his bunkmate a couple times who's from New Orleans and had the hardest time adjusting to this climate. Poor guy. :(

Yeah, my fiance has been saying similarly. And apparently the rest of the division thinks he has the coolest last name ever.
I told him that's OBVIOUSLY why I'm marrying him--just to have the cool last name. Thankfully he caught on to the joke. :p
