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."

Hello everyone! My son is also Ship 07 / Div 036. Crossing my fingers he stays on track and graduates with the group. He's a nice kid and does what he's told, so I don't see any issues unless something unforeseen happens. Can't wait for his letters to start coming, and to see him at PIR!

My son also is in the Nuke program. But he was hoping to change it. If he can't, then it's his backup plan if he doesn't make it through A School.
He had a friend who went in over the summer (also Nuke) but didn't make it through A school. He has since been reclassified. If that happens to Nick, then he has an idea of what he wants to do next. Crossing my fingers all goes well.

i got a letter!!!!!!!! ahhh, it feels so good to hear from him. from what i can gather, the first 2 weeks were terrible for him. he smokes, so i guess his shipmates told him he was going through withdrawls. poor guy. actually, i feel worse for your children having to deal with him during that time! lol.
i just wanna hug it and take it everywhere with me. :)
i hope you all get letters/calls soon! HUGS! <3

his mom and i are both hoping he can quit for good. i know how big the temptation will be, though, when he gets all of his freedoms back.
happy thanksgiving, all! enjoy your day with your family! :)
