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."

Yes!! My son left for BC on 3/29 and he is in Ship 07 Division 177. We are from California and are coming out for the PIR on May 20th. Long trip from Cali but well worth it I'm sure. Maybe we will see you at the meet and greet. We are friends so maybe you can private email me with your SR's name and next time I write I will see if my son knows your fiance. I never did get the "I'm here" call and have only recieved one letter as of today. Hoping for more mail and maybe a phone call this week.
