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."

No way I could afford to do both. I choose PIR because I figured I would see him for liberty after A school. My son has had, and continues to have a big year.
At any rate, I must sign off for the night. LOOOONg day, and tomorrow is looking to be more of the same.
It was great chatting. Fingers crossed for a call tomorrow. I will message you if I hear from Scott.

Hi Lisa! yes, it does make the time easier when you can reach out to someone who understands what you are going through! I know it is "hit or miss"- We are not always all going to be online at the same time- I have more time during the weekend- was online last night when my other kids and my husband were watching a movie!. But I read the posts when I do sign in and I am glad to hear from you! Sorry you missed last night. Hope you have a wonderful Sunday!
