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 know...right!!! I left work early because I was so afraid she would call my cell and I don't get service there. Let's hope the suspense ends soon. I have been watching the RTC site to see when ANY calls are made and none have been posted yet!

Now I know how my friend felt as she was waiting for her call a month ago! I've heard calls can come between 11am and 10pm! That's crazy! She received hers late morning! I keep looking at my cell to make sure it's still has service. I don't know why...the tower is across from my house!

Cheers to 197! They went through some tough times but in the end they pulled through. They passed BS with flying colors and beat their brother divisions score! Hooyah! They have also won ALL of their flags and pendants!!!!!! I couldn't be more proud of you all! Can't wait to see everyone on Friday and will be over the moon when they parade in front of our section of the bleachers and the command "Division! Eyes right!" gets called out. Congrats to everyone!
