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! Congratulations to her! Where will she be going the A school? Where are you from?

We're in Idaho Falls. She won't go to A School but will instead head to D.C. for 6-8 more weeks of intensive training to become a guardsman. She'll have a two year commitment for that and then will attend an A School of her choice after the two years are up.

Hello everyone!
We are from New Jersey and our oldest is in this ship/division. We are looking forward to seeing him soon. Had a 45 minute call from him on Friday;he kept asking what was new at home. I think he is missing us. Says everyone has been sick with some fever/cough/congestion. He is starting to get better now. Also says they all have blisters-I didn't know I could send him moleskin. He will be going on to A school n Charleston,SC for Nukes. Unfortunately will have a slight delay on that as he needs to have a hernia repair( called it boot camp hernia); they tell him he will have to stay for 6 weeks. He is really bummed but very glad they allowed him to continue training and graduate on time.

My son-in-law had that same hernia, they didn't catch it at bootcamp and he kept putting it off during A-school. he finally had surgery about 3 weeks ago and is already back at his job with his command :-) So maybe he won't have to be there for the whole 6 weeks.

-
That's what he is hoping. Unfortunately the delay makes him lose his spot in A school so he will have to wait for another opening, He is really down about it.

That is a bummer. Hope he heals fast!

Hopefully it won't be too long of a wait. I hope it goes well and he heels quickly :-)
