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."

I received a call from my son today. I was so glad to hear his voice!! He sounded very well but maybe a little tired. I did get his form letter on Saturday so I can't wait to send him a letter. Of Course this has to be a holiday weekend so now I can't send anything until Tuesday...ugh
I'm counting down until graduation......I hope that some of us will be able to meet. I know it will be a busy day and not a lot of time to socialize but I am hoping to run into some of you.

I got 2 calls from my daughter today.... she is in Ship 02, Div. 949 PIR 10/16. She was in tears due to homesickness. Unfortunately none of the letters we have sent have reached her due to switching divisions twice. She is very tired as well. Getting all friends and family to bombard her with letters next week.
