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."

Got a call from my son he said that they got beat real bad one day and they realized his wrist was swollen and he was sent to medical now he is being held back. I feel bad for him because that’s what he was trying to avoid and now we have no clue when he will be returned to full duty and when he will graduate. I am so proud of him all he said is mom I know I can do it I don’t want to be held back. It just makes me feel so bad because I can’t help him make it better. Well I guess that a part of us growing up and letting go. All I could do is encourage him and pray he will still want to keep going. Can’t wait to hear from him again so that I can ask how he’s doing and learn when graduation is . Bright side is they just put him on restriction and didn’t send him home. Continuing to pray for healing. I know my SR is STRONG and can overcome anything he puts his mind too.
