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."

My son got woken by his roomate at 2:30 this morning, roomate is an ET, c/o chest pain, SOB, dizzy and nauseated. Son walked him to sick bay and called an ambulance. Hopefully it is just a bad case of reflux!

OMG! My thoughts and prayers are with him, Let us know as soon as you hear anything. Did someone call his parents? Must have scared your son. There is a lot of stress on them right now, maybe just a bad attack of anxiety?

Let's pray it is nothing serious! I think they are to young for heart attack or gall bladder. Maybe it is acid reflux or anxiety. Let us know how things turn out for him. I am so excited that they are almost done with A school. I hope they move on to the same power school together.
