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."

Caitlinjenae, Some Hotels offer free shuttle service, you could check with them, if it is not free it may only be 15.oo.

Thanks. :) I checked with them and they said they didn't have a specific hotel shuttle run by them. But I did find a shuttle service that charged about $50 which I'm hoping will be cheaper than a taxi?

I haven't heard anything about it from Nick. If anyone hears anything please post it.....................thanks. Cheryl :(

I'm so scared now! :/ I've read all the posts about the prank, and Cameron's mother hasn't heard from him either. So lets all pray it was just a joke! Not a very funny one might I add, but does anyone know when battle stations start, or when 166 should be going?

It's my understanding that Battle Stations for Div. 166 is supposed to be this coming Sunday 4/18. Barbara (Adam's mom)

Are they "teamed" up with Div 165?

I can't find any of the posts about the actual pranks-where do I look? This is all surreal-I just can't imagine that our recruits are being punished for the sake of a few immature guys. Thanks, Barbara (Adam's mom).

I usually get mail on Thursday. Be hard to sleep tonight. I don't understand how they could take away original jobs and A schools..... although technically, they can probably do whatever they want. If true, I don't even want to think about how low their moods must be right now.
