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 posted some of the information on the t-shirts above.  Also, they have a website.  I had found it on a discussion on this website and ordered them a few weeks ago.

I just read on the Division T-shirt discussion that they may have some at the NEX at the PIR.

For the meet and greet you should see the RSVP on the right side of your screen or the home page of this group.

 

I got a letter from my son Tyler - I am sick of saying SR.  LOL  Anyway, he talked about the Gas Chamber on Wednesday. "It sucked more than you can believe.  I only had my mask off for a few seconds before I started coughing and I couldn't see.  All in all tear gas is something to avoid at all costs. LOL"  He said the final PFA was on Friday.  So I guess since I didn't get a call yesterday he must have passed.  Also "Well I'll write again on Sunday so rest knowing this isn't the last letter, God I miss cellphones"

I thought all you would like to know that these tests are over.  I wonder if the last academic test is on Monday. 

Have a great day, I am going to scrapbook his letters today.  I don't have any pictures until PIR.  I have to say the 7 scrapbooking days with my friend in the past 8 weeks has been fun and I have gotten alot done.  It also kept my mind off of Tyler, well when I wasn't staring at his pictures doing the scrapbook.  LOL

Does anyone have a pretty sure BS date yet? The day my child told me was most def wrong lol.

Well I thought we were safe :( She missed her run by 30 secs. Gets another chance Wed. Will call me and let me know if she gets to grad. Feel so bad for her she was bawling :(

Oh no- poor kid. I know blondie was worried about all of this. Any others in her shoes? Wonder if mine would call.... hope all are ok. WIll send positive thoughts to her.Be strong mom. d

Callie - I am so sorry she didn't pass.  I thought for sure when we didn't hear anything Friday, she had passed.  Did they do the 3rd PFA today or on Friday?  I will keep her in my thoughts.

I'm not sure when they did it. She didn't say. And I didn't have time to ask :(
