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."

yes, this is it... the moment when they will prove if they are worthy to be called "Sailor" or not. Does it get any better!!!! HOOYAH. and how lucky are WE? our division gets to set the bar. Hopefully not to high... we want the rest that follow to be able to at least "see" it. As for me, I am gonna trade good thoughts with prayers about every 5 minutes or so,.....eating and sleeping will be difficult at my house too,

Are you referring to the amusement park or the # of flags Div 289 will be carrying at PIR? I think you mean the amusement park. We're going to let our son decide...the day is his to do whatever he'd like. One thing that comes to mind about Six Flags, though, is the fact that the guys will be in their dress whites. I don't think they can change out of them that day. If anyone knows about this, please chime in. But that would be a good way to break 'em in!

I can't wait either! HOOYAH, and I have been thinking too about activities and stuff, but I am going to just let him decided.... i just have all the options ready. Nobody has mentioned 6 Flags?
