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."

Shout out to all the moms out there that have sons in this ship/division! Be strong, and know that there is no greater honor than to serve in today's military. These young people end up having such dedication, it makes my heart swell!

Not sure what it consists of. My SR did not say anything about this happening. Let me know what you find out.
I went ahead and booked out hotel, air fare and rental car. I could not wait!

My SR wrote me and he said that Hell Week consisted of many inspections, a test and PFA, which I am pretty sure is Physical fitness. He said it shouldn't be to bad.

I booked the hotel as soon as I got the graduation date. I was going to rent car but we decided to take taxi and the train into chicago on saturday. The lodge is only a mile from the base and same with the train station.

Hi everyone, I just wanted to let you all know if anyone else wants
ribbons to wear to PIR let me know asap. It is not too late. They are a
great way to show support for your sailor, to recognize other N4M
members and make a great keepsake. To place an order just click on my
name and on the left side of my page click on add as a friend. Thanks
so much and Happy New Year!!!! -
