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."

LEBLANC74 - I know just how you feel. My son is also my oldest (20). I was hoping I would get a letter from him since I figure (at least hope) they got to write on Sunday. I just talked to my youngest son and he said no. So disappointed! I am so extremely proud and excited for my son, knowing this the beginning of his Navy career which he has wanted since high school but it is so hard! I just want to hear from him and make sure he is OK.
