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 got mail too!!!!!! He sent back the questionnaire I sent, and a letter. It sounds like they are coming together as a group. Some of the troublemakers are gone (arrested or kicked out!). He says he is friends with TN! He listed a few others too, but they are last names, I think. His biggest news was that he passed his PFA and he can really shine his boots!
Ladies, we have some good, strong, brave, and smart kids. They all make me so proud. I love hearing your news and will share more later. I can't wait 'til 03/16/12!
PS- Yesterday I showed a graduation PIR video clip to my class. One of my students asked when I would show another clip, because he wants to join the Navy too! Too Stinking cute!
