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."

Preston-I am going to call the RTC tomorrow morning. I was told by two others that Ship 7 Div 361, which is where my son Kyle is, at least by the initial letter that was sent out, may be on Ship 11. Lynne also told me she will check with her contacts. I in the meantime am worried that Kyle may not have passed tests or his Div is just not doing well. I know that they say no news is good news, but when you have not received a letter or call, since the first call when he went to BC on 9.13.10 you get a little concerned. However, I also heard their mail was messed up and hopefully I should receive something this week. He also had his wisdom teeth completely in,not impacted, but I have a feeling from all other messages, that he may have gotten those out.
I was doing pretty good the last two weeks, but now I find myself getting depressed and upset not knowing what's going on.
So, I know tomorrow will be another day. I feel tonight like I just dropped him off at BC. Thanks for listening, just need a mom friend about now.
