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."

I'm alright. Some days are get really hard. I feel like it should keep getting easier and easier. How about you? How are you handling things?

Oh I see! Too bad they don't have the same PIR date :/ and yeah I will forsure let you know when I get my first letter! I am sending out all of his first letters today! I am so paranoid that like something is going to be wrong with the address or something and they aren't gonna get to him :/ that would be so awful.

IT all depends on how many he writes. I talked to a girl who only got one letter a week and another who got like 5 a week. Like my letters all came in same envelope but all written on different days. They cant send out mail until sundays so depending how many he writes throughout the week is how many you'll get. And thats why get them all at the same time too. haha. And I love your post office story that is hilarious! I usually got at like 6:30 am so no one is there. haha.
