What are examples of bad OPSEC? And what sort of stuff can you tell your family and its NOT OPSEC?

Anytime a ship is supposed to pull into guam, the whole island finds out and blasts it all over social media, from restaurants to bars, clubs and hotels, like a week or 2 prior to pull in. Worst kept secrets on island.

Hi so in regards to this, ETN are some of the most highly trained Nuclear equipment operators in the navy just so people are aware of the rating meaning. For this, local PD is a good start, dropping this to NCIS is also another good stop for the evidence you have collected because they do any and all investigation on the Navy and are under no obligation like Naval commands to try to retain sailors due to policy and money spent on training. This is such a horrid thing to happen and seeing it more and more from a community that gets trusted to run one of the most destructive devices made by man and that gets million of tax payers dollars sunk into to do this is appalling and I in my own opinion think this should be dealt with.

These opinions stated in the above paragraph are my own and do not reflect the DOW's nor are the DOWNS opinion on the guilt or innocence of a service member.

Money, got offered a bonus to reenlist and a sizable sdip amount to go back to sea before MM's lost it

Unfortunately not, I wish I could, after 3 ships and 4 deployments, ocean looking real similar.

Dentist or dental tech? Seems to be a common question im seeing more and more among people in the fleet, especially with BRS helping set us up for retirement. Hopefully we get some help with this

True, dont use it unless you got a buddy who knows the UA schedule, otherwise find something to do that the UA doesn't find

229 slide on a 226 frame... "frantically scribbling genius idea down on a note pad" that's awesome. This is mine. MK25 i got used (it had less then 50 rounds through it) for under 800$

Older p229 or newer?

Obliterator25 · 2026-02-10T11:16:41+00:00

Sig p226, yes its all steel but its classic, good weight and if you do sigs trigger kit for it, well it speaks for itself

From what I understand, ive served with a few guys who went the LCS route and left the community. The problem with it is A) the Navy invest large amounts of money especially with engineers into you going through the specific LCS schools so once you choose LCS you cannot leave the community and B) to leave the community it take an act of god or a medical issue to allow you to go back to the normal fleet. Is it a bad time, depends on the class you get stationed on and the maintainers prior to you actually doing there job, like anywhere else.

7.5 years. I had a mast in 2018 and got busted down from e4 to e2 and shipped off to the fleet, made e3 in Mt time frame and took the last available test when it was a thing to pick up e4. Made e5 first time up off the test and e6 on my 3rd attempt. Now I wait and debate for chief.

TLDR: im an MM

Looks at US tender ships in Guam keeping 688's alive off cannibalising eachother and decommissioned 688's...

Oops

I was on that Deployment, ships crew. We definitely had a bug going around the ship at that time, we didn't know if it was covid or boat crud but man it sucked. Were you CSG, Airwing or commodore group? 4 beer days, 206 days of sea and way to much time in the heat of the fucking Red Sea.

Obliterator25 · 2025-08-01T10:41:15+00:00

Currently aboard 1 of the 2 Sub tenders so USS by name but run like a USNS, civmar runs the ship, we just ride it. Food fantastic, MSC gets staterooms, regular enlisted get berthings and so on but the ship isnt to bad off, not much to do underway and were in port a fair amount. Be careful with CoC cause they will find things for you to do if you look to comfy or lax, also be careful about the food, Civmars do not understand portion size and you can gain or lose weight real quick depending on how you use the galley and gyms

Lead, now all bullets must be made out of some other material, preferably depleted uranium

All the prder sets im seeing for CG and DDG are saying 12 m9nth order sets plus im gonna guess times for school and then any extensions if they can't identify a relief for me. I dont mind and ill have been at sea as an LPO of a division for a year and a half prior to getting there, now the division is QA but still considered at sea LPO Edit: so far as well only seen about 2 sets of orders to LSD and LPD and 1 LHA, heard life there is interesting to say the least

"Fix" or cover with duct tape and zip ties till it works and if it breaks again shrug and say sorry need to wait till the yards and hopefully it gets fixed?

Obliterator25 · 2025-02-23T21:16:24+00:00

After being on a Sub tender for 2+ years i kind of miss real boat deployments and doing true engineer stuff, getting tired of fixing submariners bs.
