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 Everyone,
I just found out about this site and have just been approved, I am so grateful that this site is here for us all to keep our spirits up! I received my letter yesterday and to my surprise received a call today which I am sure you all did as well. I didn't think the first letter and the first call were going to be so emotional. We both cried for the first 5 minutes and couldn't even talk but was so glad to hear he is doing very well!!
