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."

I whole heartedly agree! Didnt have too many pictures of my SR as to where I could see his face! But I knew it was him by the flag he was carrying! So proud of them all.......they have grown up so much in the last 7-8 weeks! Dec 7th seems like forever ago! I watch the video of him taking his oath and think wow, how things have changed for him and for us!!!! Cant wait to see him and meet his new "family"!

I recorded the ceremony when my daughter was sworn in, that is what I watched! I would love it if someone finds a video of yesterdays PIR. I looked on Youtube, but couldn't find anything.

I totally agree with someones last comment about these last days being so hard! I have been so emotional and really cant put my finger on what it is!!! I miss him so much and want only the very best for him! He has worked so hard....maybe its knowing that the hardest things (in my opinion) are coming up, the "gas" chamber, the final PT and BS 21! Just know that it comes down to this before they can graduate........I am so anxious and uptight!! Havent slept for 2 nights and my stomach is doing flips!!!! Glad to know that I am not the only one is this boat!!!
