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."

Hi! My son is also on Ship 02, Div 914!!! It is great to see so many others who's loved ones are in the same division! So proud of all our sailors!!
I am from Castle Rock, Colorado. Nice to meet you!
We are from a small town in NC. After RTC my son will be going to HM school in TX!
I like in the Dallas area. My son goes to A school in SC then on to Nukes. Welcome everyone!
Hi everyone! My son is going to Nuke school in SC too! I rec'd my first letter on Fri. Not to get anybody's hopes up but my son seems to think he will get to spend the wknd w us after grad. He wrote like 0900 to 2000 (sat. & sun.at the least) I hope he is right for our sakes & theirs.
I am under the impression that if a SR is attending A school in GL they move first then get Liberty.. If the SR will fly to another State for A school they will get Liberty after PIR until around 8 p.m. then they fly out super early Sat morning, Sunday if there are ticket issues. Anything can change though. I do not think there is a "specific" set of rules. We should know more after they pass BS21 and they get their orders.
That is what I was assuming as well from the things I have learned about on N4M. :( Thanks 4 ur input. My SR may have already learned differently by now.
