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."

Welcome to the discussion group for divisions 339 & 340. These two divisions are brother divisions and will be training together from the beginning through BS21 their final test. Your SRs, soon to be SAILORS, are becoming friends, and some of them may be heading to A School together.

We don't want to accidentally overlook any of them or you.
Hang in there!!!

DarleneRN...we just booked our flight today. We've been checking on the fares for about a week and found a good deal with United, but my mother in law said Southwest is easier if we need to change dates. Good luck. Are you flying to Ohare or Midway?
