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."

update on my sailor boy. If you call them letters.. there were 2 - both of which were requests for wiki information about specialties he was researching. Looks like he will make it to PIR. He is going Corpsmen and wants to work with the Marines.
Interesting note. He says that my letter to him was very censored. I wish I knew why... anywho... 2 weekends to live through and then we head to Chicago. Be well Moms! peg

This is what I clicked on. It's a picture of the RDC's but if you keep looking through pics, more of the recruits will come up. None of them is our boys, but it's nice to see the kind of things they do!

Haha! aww :( My husband is dark skinned so every dark skinned guy I seen I would instantly think it's him...but nope! It's alright, 21 more days until we are all reunited!! I can't believe how fast time is going.

I was reading up on group PIR 10/1/10 and they posted up a picture of a group of boys eating in the galley. I was staring so hard trying to find my babe but then I realized it was a different DIV. The RTC has a facebook page and post weekly photos and then I realized another thing...our boys are in Special Ops and the whole OPSEC rule so I don't think they can even post up pics of them :( Kind of bummed out.
