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."

Does anyone have pictures of Division 131 at graduation? We were sitting in another area and were not able to take pictures of my son's division. The experience was incredible and unforgettable.

I miss my son. He's in Pensacola with mamamary805's son for about 7 weeks or so.... not sure his next stop or plan after that, but just knowing that when I can get his cell phone down to him, we'll be able to talk is such a blessing! Beautiful graduation. More than I ever expected and hoped for. Makes a mama proud! Love to you all who I've been going through this with. Makes everything easier when you have friends doing it too.

Jaime's, she got there Sundays afternoon. She has not classed up yet not till next week. I think. I am just so glad I get to speak to her every day. I get the phone call or the text before she goes to bed that is enough for me.
