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."

Thank you so much for the update. We didn't get a letter this week, so to hear any news is good. But to hear that they kicked butt is GREAT news. Like you said maybe they are turning things around.
Thanks Again!!!

Horselover -- I am so sorry to hear about your son. Things happen for a reason, though sometimes we don't always know the reason. It is my hope that his new division is a good one. Good luck to y'all! :(

I got a letter today! He said that they FINALLY earned a flag for physical fitness, mentioned that they could perhaps be starting to get their acts together. Let's hope and pray :)

YAH! for the Physical flag! thanks for posting, I didn't get a letter yesterday, hopefully today! Do you know when their battle stations take place? soon I would assume...Do you know what they do exactly? thanks.

I do not know when BS will take place, but I do know that when we do find out that information, we shouldn't post it on here. We can share it via private message, though. Once someone finds out, please send it out to everyone. Thanks!
What I do is that BattleStations 21 is a real life simulator of a ship where they encounter a lot of different scenarios that they have been training how to handle. It's their final exam for boot camp, so let's hope that they all pass. Here's a little snip-it from CNN on BS21 -- BattleStations 21. I hope that helps! :)
