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."

The Buzzing Boobs of Graduate families/friends of 9.10.10

This group was created so that the past PIR group of 9.10.10 wasn't left in the dust, great friendships were formed, and this is so that they aren't left behind.

Members: 14
Latest Activity: Oct 2, 2010

We formed some great memories during our loved ones boot camp experiences, we cried together, laughed together, shared memories, and excitement. We learned more and more as each day passed, and formed wonderful life long friendships along the way. We are all here for the same reason, to support our recruits SAILORS we've come a long way, as have they, now they are all spread out, and we don't want to lose contact, so this is our group(:

WE ALSO LEARNED A VALUABLE LESSON...PHONE IN YOUR BRA, NEVER MISS A CALL(:

oh lol, I'm sorry, I guess I didn't pay a lot of my attention to the connections of the Sailors and parents, I have gotten a couple of people confused. I am glad that he is doing good, and they couldn't pay me either, I hate needles, I don't mind blood tho!

Thanks D O, yeah it's hard..but it's easier that we stayed friends and all..so yeah..that makes things a little better..we just need a break..i personally think we began to just drive eachother up the wall and around the corner!
Comment by d o on September 28, 2010 at 8:19pm
Oh Nicole,I'm so sorry:( After all the waiting through boot camp), I know this must be hard for you.

Sometimes a little break helps you realize you can't live w/out each other....and if you can, it's better to find out sooner than later.

Most men just want to see and hear a happy woman, somehow that makes them feel better. If you can't be that around him right now, you might need the break just for sanity sake. I hope we hear some good news soon......
Comment by nicole~a sailors girl(: on September 28, 2010 at 7:59pm
well ladies..i'm no longer a navy girlfriend:( we had a mutual break up tody, but we're still friends, and that's all i could ask for..we may pick it up later..but as of right now we're just fighting too much..


mrs.b - i will keep you and your blessing baby boy in my prayers..stay positive..and get some rest..try to not pressure your hip and walking if it hurts..don't want any other complications..hang in there girl..you've come so far! you can do it!
Comment by d o on September 28, 2010 at 7:01pm
Mrs B. I am praying for you and putting you on our church's prayer list. Do you have a chaplain or any other support right now?

This is all going to be over soon. Your baby will be beautiful and we will all be here for you waiting on pins and needles to hear some good news. Take some cleansing breaths and let the stress out...holler if you have to, and then remember that stressing won't change a situation, but praying will! And that's what WE will be doing for you while you TRY to dwell on the positive ;)
