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."

Yes!!!!! I'm so excited! I love the count down at the beginning of this group. Our son is leaving for A school the night/early morning, but we aren't leaving until the 22. I am hoping to catch a game at Wrigley field on Saturday. And get pizza. I went to Chicago for my 16th birthday and have been wanting to go back ever since.

girl64, my son is ship 14 div 292 as well, and we will be going to PIR. We got to talk with him last week and he sounded great, said his division is coming together. He was SIQ for 5 days from having his wisdom teeth pulled, but said all was good :) our SR hasn't really talked about other people in his division only one or two, one from TN he thinks which is very strange bc he's always been really social
