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."

Sorry...I just noticed this email now. My son is in the center - third row from the front (I am not counting the SR sitting by himself in front as a row) and 5th from the left...just to the right of the handsome African-American recruit.

Hi Tinamev,
My SR said he has lost 23 pounds so far...so yes they have lost weight! Wish I could say the same for myself =)

I just joined the group. My son Cameron is ship 12 division 359 and goes to SanAntonio for military police training. In Sept. I will not be able to attend the graduation and probably will not see him again till November. He is my one and only so I am an empty nester as well. Far too many adjustments at once.

Hi Cameron's Mom,
My SR is in the same division. I will find your son and take pictures at the graduation! My SR is my only son too. It is a lot to get used to, but you will have tons of support on this site. Remember you are not alone.
Blessings,
Lisa

Hi Sglen-
My son, Dylan, is in the same division. I will ask on PIR if he knows your son and will try to get some pictures for you! I know there will be a lot of people there but I will do my best. Hang in there. We are all here to support you! God Bless you and your son.
