Becoming a Marine Parent
Operational Security... Now? [http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001mZGPc4oCtaz3Vm7FFRYHZ2Zic2Q-25xGK8WF1z8KN3NzthL_Ef49yj0M4rz3fsCpRyjKqzjqDhTx9KJB4_8F9tQpMLqrm5w0zwMpgK70vD7JQC-Xnp2e8Z5NtCnTS9fkeDzkugcfHLPAlg2MyIYxfg==]
In this series of articles, we've talked a little bit about privacy and respect,
noting that both are important concepts to learn as the parent of a recruit. As
your recruit nears graduation, the concept of Operational Security becomes just
as important to understand.
As a family member of the military community, you are a vital player in their success.
You may not know it, but you also play a crucial role in ensuring your loved ones'
safety just by what you know of the military's day-to-day operations. You can protect
your loved ones by protecting the information that you know. This is known in the
military as, "Operational Security", or OPSEC.
OPSEC is important to us as family members during recruit training because we need
to understand it fully prior to our Marine going into the fleet.

Marine Corps started as the "Continental Marines" during the American Revolutionary
War, formed by a resolution of the Continental Congress on November 10, 1775, and
first recruited at Tun Tavern in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
They served as landing troops for the recently created Continental Navy. The Continental
Marines were disbanded at the end of the war in April 1783 but re-formed on July
11 1798. Despite the gap, Marines celebrate November 10 as the Marine Corps Birthday.
Historically, the United States Marine Corps has achieved fame in several campaigns,
as referenced in the first line of the Marine Corps Hymn: "From the halls of Montezuma
to the shores of Tripoli".

following is an excerpt from an April, 2009 Marine Corps article.
Parris Island through the eyes of new recruits
As the air brakes hiss, hearts beat faster, palms sweat, breaths become shorter
and a bus of hopeful recruits are unified by the fear of the unknown.
These are the experiences of so many recruits who have passed through Parris Island's
main gate.
Upon arriving, recruits are greeted by a drill instructor and ordered to get off
the bus and onto Parris Island's legendary yellow footprints.
These are the words all recruits hear once they are on the yellow footprints:
"You are now aboard Marine Corps Recruit Depot Parris Island South Carolina, and
you have just taken the first step toward becoming a member of the world's finest
fighting force, the United States Marine Corps."

Initial Drill Evaluation tests each platoon's ability to listen to the orders of
its Drill Instructor at this point in training, and is a demonstration of the unit's
degree of discipline and esprit de corps.
Drill is used as one of the first methods of transforming these recruits from civilians
into Marines, and plays a large part on their development of teamwork and unit cohesion.
One Marine Mom says, "On Family Day and Graduation you will be amazed when you see
the new Marines marching out onto the Parade Deck. They will be marching in perfect
rows... perfectly in step... pivot perfectly in time with each other... and will
be a sight to behold!"

Combat Marksmanship Instructor, or CMI, teaches recruits the fundamentals of weapons
safety with their M-16A2 service rifle.
During Firing Week, which is the second week of marksmanship training, recruits
hear the four rifle range safety rules several times each day. Recruits will hear
these safety rules frequently for the rest of their time in the Marine Corps and
many Marines remember them for the rest of their life.
The first rifle range safety rule is:
Treat every weapon as if it were loaded.

Crucible is a test every recruit must go through to become a Marine. It tests every
recruit physically, mentally and morally and is the defining moment in recruit training.
The Crucible takes place over 54-hours and includes food and sleep deprivation and
over 45 miles of marching. The entire Crucible event pits teams of recruits against
a barrage of day and night events requiring every recruit to work together to solve
problems, overcome obstacles and help each other along the way.
The obstacles they face range from long marches, combat assault courses, the leadership
reaction course, and the team-building warrior stations.
