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."

Hello Hazel_04. So glad you posted. This group is not very active, but ive kept my settings so that if anyone posts I get alerted! My son graduated from Boot Camp June 15th, and is in BESS school for SECF. He is doing fantastic. This site was wonderful for support and answering questions.

Hi everyone! I'm new here. My fiancée is in boot camp right now and she'll be going to Groton for A school. Signed up for SECF and is planning to take STS for specialization.

I suggest you look at the Sub Moms group if you can. There is a lot of information on their page. Or search for A school if you haven't yet. Good luck

Does anyone know where I can find more information on A school? Anyone had any experience with A school having dependents?
