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."

Hi Nicksmom, I am sorry you have not heard from your son and his wife will not give you the address or division.
The best anyone can do for you is pass the message along that you are looking for him, and ask that he send you the information. The members here cannot pass that along to you!!

I got my son's letter on Tuesday! I was so happy to hear from him! My daughter and I are not going to the graduation. I feel so sad but we don't have the money plus his wife and dad and step mom are going and there aren't enough tickets since they can only give out 4 and I will not leave his little sis behind who has been missing him so badly she sleeps in his T-shirts and sleeps on his bed. Him and his wife got married a week before he left. They haven't even lived together. But they are super cute and super in love! It made me feel better knowing he had someone else writing him and loving him so much. My son wants to spend quality time with me and his sis, so we opted to meet up with him later and spend time with him this summer. I pray it works out. I miss him so MUCH!!! Sometimes I hear him calling mom! It scares me. But he sounded good in his letter :)

Hi . Does anyone know if you misplace the form letter with your recruits information as well as your password and gate code if the Recruit Training Center can give you the information if you call. I had my sons information on my fridge and went to pack it yesterday and can't find it anywhere :(
