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."

Thanks for the info, ladies. I'm probably going to take the shuttle to graduation from the hotel. Is the pass good for the whole weekend, in case I drive to the base? I can't believe I'll be heading to Chicago a week from today!
Can't wait to see my sailor! I'm off work tomorrow. I hope I'll get the phone call saying that he's a sailor then! Good luck to all for Battlestations-21 tonite! Got a letter from him yesterday. He didn't like the gas chamber exercise! Got to get his girlfriend to O'Hare by 1:00 on Friday, to catch her flight back to Ft. Wayne, to be home in time for HER high school graduation! I think I'll take a taxi! May cost alot, but at least I'll get her there on time. I wouldn't have any way of knowing how to get there if I drove her. Thanks everyone. I'll be at the "Meet and Greet" on Thursday nite. Hope to finally meet up with everyone! Have a good day, ladies!

All is well here!!! Hope all is well with you also!! Yes we're almost done!!!! Can't wait until PIR......so excited!! I have a lot of questions about Pensacola now!! LOL!! Do you know if they can have a car at A School? We live in AL and our son's car has been at our house during boot camp. We are wondering if/when we could get it to him, but don't know for sure if he can even have a car???

Im so excited to look at the countdown clock and see 3 days left! Not sure about the car at A school. Since we live in WA and my son is going to A school in Virginia. We figured it's not the most cost effective to get it to him for 12 weeks when he then will be moving on for C school. I cant wait!!! N ot to excited about the weather report someone posted though LOL
