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."

Claudia I also joined the facebook page for FIT Program. The ladies on this page are so so helpful. Without their encouraging words I think I would have cried and worried myself into insanity by now. I still haven't heard any from my husband since he was moved to fit This past Monday. Here is the link if you would like to join. https://m.facebook.com/groups/437960142931727

Thanks letyrod. That gives me a more hope my husband will graduate on time. I just get more anxious and nervous as the days pass.
Comment by letyrod24 on January 27, 2015 at 1:49pm
My son was in bootcamp back in Nov 2014. I too got that heartbreaking call on the Monday before graduation. He retested on Wednesday and passed and graduated on time with his division. So keep praying for your son. Hopefully his given another chance and will pass. Blessings for your son.

I just got the call my SR didn't pass his swim test. He is suppose to graduate 1/30. How often are the swim test given and is it possible for him to still graduate on time.
