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."

We are planning on leaving early so we can get through the city before 19th gets too insane. Some time to enjoy beyond in the north. Thanks. I will look for a photo.

Nancy USS Boise, wonderful that you can make it to the MNG and the parade. $10 each is what we all will bring. Maybe an umbrella in case it does rain.
I sent meam a picture of my son in his uniform. Everyone would love to see your sailor in Uniform as well. You will not have to walk very far. The parking lot is right next to the Mail Depot. Arrive around 11 am at the latest. Streets close for the parade.

Are you looking for a picture of him in uniform?

Hi Nancy USS Boise,
You can pull right up to the door and to our seats. The parade will go on even if it rains. There is an overhang for protection plus we can sit inside and watch out the window.
Looking forward to talking Navy. You can send me a picture of your sailor to petalumamaildepot@gmail.com
