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."

Just bragging a bit---Today my son finished his schooling and graduates tomorrow, he's in the top of his class. I'm a proud mom. Now we are praying he gets stationed where he wants.

Colten, my son, came home for the weekend and we all ate too much! He loves momma's home cooking! He said that his peers made him Deck Leader and soon to be Section Leader when one of the others gets shipped off. Good for him! He's five days ahead in his ATT and doing very well, let's hope they recognize that and send him to C-school! Keep up the great work!
Good luck to your sailors who are in school!!! Keep praising them!!

Hi Everyone, My daughter is at A-School in GL as a EN.

I just got a call today from him and he was very happy to tell me he found out that he got top in class. He also mentioned that he would be making PO 3rd class within the year because of this. Way to go, son!!

Marianne- he's at GL for awhile, my son is an EM. He thinks he maybe on hold for a little while before he classes up. He was also told after schooling that he may not get orders for his next duty until Oct. when the fiscal year starts. Hopefully just a rumor. So far so good!
