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 but I couldn't find the group.....how's it listed?
On another note Dustin's Mom and Marty B...my SR called for additional info for his security clearance and said he knew Dustin D. and Timothy B..........your guys?? If so he said they are doing well and were really great guys (or as he put it really cool). He said they are all working hard to get everything down and he thinks Marlinspike is next week. He didn't have much time to visit but it was such a nice surprise it made my day (even though it's raining and gloomy out)!

Oh my goodness!!! That's my boy! I am so glad to hear that he's doing well. He has not written one letter...the rascal! He said that when he gets time, he studies! Good for him but I sure miss hearing from him. The one 10 minute call was heaven. Thanks for the info! I'm on FB. If you want to private message me, I'll add you to the new group.

Yes Timothy B would be my "cool" SR!!! He does seem to be doing well and says there are some cool guys that he has met. My SR is the one that jumped up and busted his head open on his bunkmate's drawer and had to go have 5 staples in his head...hahaha. Today should be 2-5 and Marlinspike is scheduled on 3-5 so that would put it next Monday. They seem to be moving right along. Craig said that their schedule was really, really tight for them to complete everything by PIR. Can't afford to be sick or miss anything that isn't scheduled....wisdom teeth removal was scheduled although mine didn't have to have his out at this time.
