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."

Wow... so excited that J has volunteered to go to NY as well. My S wouldn't want to be separated from his buddies if at all possible!  I can't wait to meet you and B! I have met J (way back at Midway airport)!  Seems impossible to believe but it is only 5 more weeks!

What is MTM04?  MamaCindy (MM PS 1201-7) can you please look at your list and tell us what the MTM04 test is?  

JoannfromYuma MamaCindy texted me the answer:  MTMO is Mechanical Theory for Machine Operators... when our ET or EM's take this it is a cross-rate training... basically so they can communicate out in the fleet. If for MM, it's in-rate (what they do) and it will help the other two explain back and forth! LOL... I think I got it right.

You got my meaning right.  : )  Can't swear it's completely accurate, but that's my understanding!  Maybe dbell will correct us if we're wrong.

Hello, everyone.  I haven't been here in a while.  Just wanted to catch up & say Hi!

Just 2 more tests & comp!

Yes, praying for Rad Funds this week! Sherry what PIR did your son graduate? Mine was 4/1/11 ship 11 div 116...

Less than two weeks until Power School 1201 Graduation!  We are going to GC!  We will have a Meet & Greet at the Raddison at 5991 River Avenue on Thursday evening 5/24/12! 8PM!  Please join us!

I hope all of you who go to the graduation will stop in at the meet & greet on Thur night.  At first I was planning to just drive up early Fri AM.  It's only 4 hrs for me.  But I really want to be able to meet some of the moms who have helped me through this past year! 

Do you have the details of the meet and greet on Thursday evening? I would love to meet some of the other families. I missed the one for Bootcamp because I didn't know anything about it.
