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."

Does anyone have a SR that will be a Gunner's Mate? Mine will be staying at Great Lakes for 3 weeks and then off to somewhere else! I have no idea where the next place will be, just that once they are done training they get leave!!

If you haven't checked out the new encouragement questionnaire in the discussions be sure and check it out. It is funny and has a great paragraph of encouragement for battle stations. This is the one I made for my daughter, you may have to tweak it a little since my Sailor is a girl. I hope you all like it :-)

Welcome reqmcole!
Don't feel like you have to answer, but can you share why/how your SR landed in this division. I understand that SRs move around sometimes. I'm just trying to understand the how and why of it all.
Oh, and we'll TOTALLY WELCOME the help on Trivia Tuesday. I need to go warm up my various sleuthing skills for that!
