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."

Hello!
I've got a quick question. Has anyone sent their SR a calling card? I wasn't sure if they needed one or not. I asked my husband in a letter I wrote him awhile back but I haven't gotten any new letters since the 21st of May. -

CassieRose,I sent a calling card with him when he left. I've heard that they are given one, but I'm not for sure. I was so excited when I got a call I forgot to ask.

My son asked me to look up how long he has to remain a PACT Airman....I don't think this what he wants to do. I don't think he can get out of it either. I don't know how to direct him to get him the assistance he needs. Any suggestions I can pass on to him from the veteran moms? I also spoke to him for a few minutes on Saturday and he sounded stressed and pretty much the same as last week.
