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."

Anyone with loved ones on Ship 03? Encouraging message, esp. for those (like me) whom haven't rec'd Letters or calls...
Just got an encouraging message from a recent grad on the RDC site:
Adam: Ship 03 is the best! I didn't get to get my first letters out until 2+ weeks after I started. Ship 03 has the best RDC's though. They're strict, but when it came to graduation, all of the divisions from Ship 03 did miles better than the other divisions in our graduating push. Good luck to your husband.
How encouraging! Seems like alot of divisions from this ship DO indeed get honors in something or another!

The RDC will respond (or someone from the team most likely) on the RTC site :) Hope you find what you are looking for! I had a message from an RDC so that's why I tend to make it more personal, sorry for any confusion!

My daughter is on ship 03. She graduates 4/23. She said she will only have a couple of hours to spend with me before she ships to florida. I am debating if I should go on a holiday weekend from California or wait and see her when she is in Florida. Will she be able to visit us if we go to Florida?

My daughter in ship 03 div 152 but she will graduate on 04/29 she is having a real hard time. I never knew how much she would miss me since she was always ran off with her friend. Well got the first letter and she is not having a real easy time. she misses me so much she will cry when she thinks of me. I send her a letter everyday and tell her how proud I am of her. I miss her too but we live in a small town in Florida and there is nothing her for young kids. They work in fast food places and she did not want to go to college like her sister. Please someone tell me this is normal and she will feel better soon. She just finished her 3 week and she is on light duty she has done something to her back. I need some help.
