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."

I swear I am having a Panic Attack, should I be expecting the "I'm a Sailor" call this morning? my hubby is in Div 084, I know they should be completing Battlestations this morning, and I am dieing to hear if he passed or not. It's been a sleepless night for me and I need to know that he passed. How long does this take before I can find out???

Battlebuddy - We are also staying at the Springhill. Any suggestions on how
to avoid the Shuttle Dilemma? Can you call your own taxi or take a shuttle from another hotel? I will be a basket case if I have to wait and be late!

Ladies, I'm taking my camcorder around and asking family/friends to record a little message for my son. Then, after I edit it, I'm going to put it on a flash drive that he can take with him to A school. Of course, I'm going to play it for him on my computer on Friday. Anyway, I thought I'd share my idea with you in case any of you would want to do it too!

...battlebuddy: Meant to say...so sorry that your shuttle did not arrive when it was supposed to. Must have been a glitch with the front desk not ordering enough? Someone probably got in big trouble for that error....

The whole secret to good seating for a large PIR group as this one is ---is to be early! Shuttle or driving...you must be moving early....

battlebuddy: I understand that all of the PIR shuttles are taxis....ours from the Residence Inn was also. But didn't matter to us...ours was a minivan and it got us there and back with no issues! Ours left Residence at 6:30 as planned, and we signed up for that one the night before. I understand that they sign them up so that they can make sure they have enough taxis.
Ladies, you all can order the PIR DVD that battlebuddy mentioned after PIR in the NEX. Make sure that your new sailor didn't already order it for you. It is $29 and is mailed to you. Absolutely order it! We never saw our sailor during PIR... not until we saw him up close as he passed the "review stand" on the DVD!
battlebuddy: So glad that you had so much fun at PIR with your sailor! It is truly a lifetime experience, right? I was blown away by the whole thing...and we had a GradNGo (actually "Sat departure" but RDCs call them GradNGos) so we only had Friday with him...didn't know that we could meet him at the airport Sat. when we went a yr ago so missed out on that time :-(

Good morning! I hope all you moms expecting calls today get the great news...."I am a sailor!" I hope the calls all come in early too. I was so nervous Friday, I felt sick. I got my call at 5:30 est. Have a great day!
