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."

That was nice for your son William. I asked by son on Friday if anyone wanted to go out with us and he said the ones he knew already had plans. Husband said he spent time with my son at base and met alot of his division buddies. Hope yours was one of them. :) Good luck with your son in NUKE school. Hope you stay in group so we can keep up.

Back in ATL GA after spending the day in Great Lakes! What a fabulous day! So happy to wrap my arms around my son. I can go to bed a happy mom! My husband and my son's girlfriend are able to stay up there and spend more time with my son. He had watch tonight but is free all day Sat and Sun. It was a very quick trip...a little less than 24 hrs in Chicago but well worth the trip! Hope everyone has a great rest of the weekend!

I am so happy that everyone in the division passed. I got to talk to my son for almost an hour. It delayed my departure but I am now in Arkansas. There is snow and ice on the roads, but not to bad. Hopefully we will make to gl in time for m&g. It might be tough.

They gave them energy drinks after BS21 which explains the high rate of speech.
