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, I received a call from my son yesterday. So happy to hear his voice. His division is doing great. They just had their 2nd Physical Fitness Assessment (PFA) and they passed... They got 5 flags. They did a great job. He got 5.0 on both personal inspection and weapons turnover inspection. I am so proud of him.
My son will be staying in Chicago after graduation for his A school. A school will start on Dec. 15th through Feb. 25th. I don't know if this means anything to other recruits that are staying in Chicago. I thought I would share that with everyone.
He is still not sure though if he can come home for Christmas. I wish he could... looking forward to the PIR. 11/18/2010 -
