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."

Good evening Ladies my name is Vicki my son Jonathan is in ship 13 div 321, this is all so new to me, I got a call from him last sunday and we got to talk for about 15 minutes but we had bad reception. So far I have received 4 letters from him. In just these past few weeks I already notice a change in his personality. I was having a real hard time with him being gone but since I go talk to him I feel better. He graduated from high school in June and already going to grad from boot camp, my 18 year old grew up quick.....
