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."

Sara did not pass the PFC by 3 seconds...but I could hear the hoorahs in the background...I hope the rest of your get your "I'm A Sailor" calls soon...I don't know what to do now.
whoshero: thank you for the push...her recruiter has said the same thing.

I woke up about 12 times last night and prayed, prayed, prayed for our battle stations crew. PinkysMom: I have a friend whose son passed his swim test literally the morning of PIR...didn't get to march but graduated with his division...it
CAN still happen.

Moms you are the greatest!!! & I really do pray to meet you all @ M&G on the 18th
Comment by NM Loreta-Ship11,Div002 PIR11/19 on November 15, 2010 at 1:58pm
OMG..Pinkys mom..no need to apologize that we got no calls because of Sara. They may or may not be the reason AND they are a team so it is what it is. Its not like Sara didn't try or want to pass her PT so please..don't apologize. I know one thing..there is NO way I would pass..even if I was 18 or so..lol. Honestly..the no calls could have been over anything...just how the Navy is..lol. My gut tells me she is going to pull this off and we WILL be meeting you at the M&G! I will keep you and Sara in my prayers! It HAS to all work out! Regardless..please know that if she is slightly delayed..she is ONE brave girl and be proud of her 9as we all are of ALL our Sailors). HUGS!
