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."

Nothing could keep me away from PIR. I can't wait for the info to make reservations.  I think my mailman will hate me by that time. lol

Wouldn't dream of missing PIR! I told my boss I would need time off in August for it, didn't know when, but he could count on be taking time off! I grew up in Chicago and I'm hoping to see some old friends while we're up there. But mostly I look forward to meeting my new Navy man!

Well my son left but not without his classic moves at the restaurant he left his retainers and we had to go back. Then after we dropped him off at the recuriters, he text us that he needed a SSN card. He might be off to his new career but the lil boy i know is still in there. I will miss him so much but I know he will do well. I am doing pretty good right now then again it has only been like 40 min.lol

Sometime tonight or early tomorrow morning you should get the 'I'm here' call.  It is going to be very short.  She'll tell you that you'll receive the form letter in about 10 days (that will have her address and PIR date), that she'll be able to call you in about 3 weeks (I'm still waiting for that one...), and that she loves you.  She'll probably sound nervous.  If you've watched the BC video, you'll see that it has been very loud, they're getting tired and they're not in Kansas any more.  :)  It's OK...they'll be so proud in about 8 weeks!!!  I actually received my form letter in 6 days, but 10 is more common.  If you'd like her address sooner, you should be able to get it from her recruiter by Friday.  They aren't always correct...but most of the time they are.  Keep your phone handy.  The call may come very late.
