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."

I miss you all. I feel like I am in mournng. I haven't been able to connect with any N4M in muu son's A school. I feel lost. Docsangel you are in my thoughts and prayers. I hope this weekend goes well. Robsproudmom - Hooyah. your name fits you well. You should be proud. My son got OC sprayed last week during his training. He tole me that if anyone ever threatens to spray me with pepper spray...do what they say. He said it was the worst physical pan he had ever felt in his life. Good new though, he did have the fastest time for his group...yay! tmasters - you are also in my thoughts and prayers. My best wishes for your son and his new wife. I hope each of you will keep us updated if your sailors get deployed. Best wishes to all of you...

Dear Ship 3 Div 233 Moms, I've missed you. Had a lot going on and have not been able to get on line but I've been reading your posts. tmasters - congrats and how exciting! So I guess you will be making another trip to GL soon. K's Mom - congrats on your son. I am jealous that so many of you have sons that are still together in GL. Anthony is in San Antonio. There is one guy from the division with him but his Mom is not on N4M and his roommate is from their brother division. Nina - how proud you must be for your son. That is awesome. I have just come to accept that my son will not be stationed near here, even though we have 3 Naval Bases within 45 minutes of our house. He will find out in 14 days where his duty station is. Although I will miss him and so will his sons, I want him to see the world and make the most of his Navy experience. I love all of you and send my best wishes to you and your sailors.

Diane- Awesome news!!! I relived those spine tingling 'I'm a Sailor' feelings all over again for you! Like Nina said, it's been a little longer road for Kyle but hooray for all of you, great news!!
Toni-Congratulations........are you having the wedding in CO? Derek is getting married in Ohio in her back yard.

Congrats Kyles Mom. A School is much better you definitely are more connected. It's made a world of difference. I know I talked to my son about once a day sometimes every other.
Docsangel - yes Nick is getting married...4 weeks away! Nick told me your son and he were near each other. Sounds like there are five of them from our division that are on the same floor.
School is in full swing, there are a coupel phases so if there are no holds he will be finished the end of Sept. Glad to hear everyone is doing well!

K's mom- The waiting is finally over, I know you have been worried sick. That must mean he is healed and ready to roll! Congrats..that was a longer road than the rest of us.
My son is also in CG in DC and passed his first inspection yesterday. Guess our division boys (3 of them) are helping each other out in the evenings to prepare for inspections. Nice to know!
