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 cannot believe tomorrow is Battlestations for our group, and the start for everyone else. I have a question...If our SR didn't pass the final PFA, would we have gotten a phone call to let us know? I am hoping that no news is good news. I know they get more chances to pass, so would they still be doing that, trying to pass to get to battlestations? Not sure how this works. I am just a nervous wreck latelly about all these finals for them. I know she can do it, I think I am overanxious about seeing her!

Patti, Microcenter is the actual name of the store. Some cities don't have them. I'm not sure if you can order from Microcenter online or not.
