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."

Still No letter yet! Congrats Freckle's dad on receiving your letter, I am Glad you SR is doing well.
It's so hard when you don't hear from them, I write to my SR every day.
I Know she is a tough cookie and she is ok, But it still makes it hard when I don't hear it from her.
I also held off on booking my flight, But did reserve the rooms At the Navy Lodge.
You also made my day by telling us they can call home at Christmas Thank-you for that!
