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."

My son should be going to Goose Creek,SC. My niece is in Pensacola with her fiance; they will be getting married Labor Day weekend; her fiance has been there about 8 months and she just moved in May. Small world :)

I also got 2nd letter today :) Confused about when it was written bcs he talks of it being week1 day 4 and I'm calculating this is week 3. No phone call, yet. I read that the phone call is a stressful thing because we are so afraid of missing it and they are so afraid we will miss it. Wish I could take the cell to work. What is your husbands' name? My son is Jeff.
