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."

Welcome to the new moms. This group was such a help to me when my son was in SA last year. Thanks, Stephanie. Please feel free to help me keep the break down current if any corrections/clarifications are needed.

Is being sent to Guam/Baharian normal for most MA's? Just wondering if we'll be stationed overseas or is this for a deployment?

Anyone whose sailor graduated on November 13, I have lots of pictures and will email to anyone who needs them. My photo email is tigervid@aol.com Graduation was as Paula says very relaxed not like boot camp ceremony. Stephen did awsome, he got a special commendation for his work at the religious center The Refuge. He was the first Navy personnel to ever be granted the coveted white rope. Keep the faith
