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."

Thank you both for those kind offers. I really appreciate them. But I hate to adopt her out without her permission. But I will write to her about your offers. That was really sweet of you.

I wrote to my niece of all your kind offers. She called today after battle stations. She said she had originally planned to chill with some other orphaned recruits, but she received a letter from her bunkie's mom inviting her to join them and decided to accept her invitation. Thank you all again.

No, however our SR is in the same DIV (423) and unfortunately for us and him we are not able to make his graduation either (which is killing us). Coming from CA is tough right now (in this economy).

I'm so sorry to here that. I had the name wrong (was trying to go by memory) the SR's name is Stan....who will be going to FL along with my son after PIR, If I knew who your SR was, we could possibly include him as well??? My SR has myself, his wife, my husband, my ex-husband, his wife and his mother all going to GL for PIR (my husband and my SR's stepmom cannot attend the ceremony but will still be there) so we have more than enough love and pride to share....
