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."

the 1st is 18 days from now, are we going to be able to see them on the 30th or something? if so that would be great

No I wish.. I just counting down til I leave., It makes me feel better.. haha.. I get to IL at 8:45pm so it is like that day was over anyway..

wow that was very informative. he is going to be a machinist mate so that sounds like something in the realm of "center for service support", right? :-/
-
-
-
Yeah seems right because my man was trying to change to machinist mate and he said that the stations were in CA or HI..
-
-
-
you are too cute. i tell myself 18 because i dont know if i will be going. in the two minutes that he called me we spoke about my pregnancy so i didnt get any info about the graduation. why did your man want to be machinist mate, because of the location or for other reasons to?
-
-
-
Oh why don't you know if you are going cuz of your pregnancy? BTW congrats! I honestly don't know what he changed it but I think it has to do with me and where I am..
-

i don't know if I am going because we have not spoken about me going. I don't know if I am on the list or not. I'm waiting everyday for his call cuz the sooner he tells me the sooner I can by my ticket. Unfortunately a week after he left I had surgery to remove my pregnancy because it was ectopic. It has been very difficult going through all this while he was gone. Before he left we both knew that my pregnancy was abnormal so it was not a big surprise for him when I told him. Now were just moving on the best way we can. I really hope to visit him or that he flies home.

Oh well have you written him to ask him? That is how I get all my questions answered.. And wow I am sorry.. That is so sad to hear.. =[ And I bet this is way harder for you.. Gosh.. I hope you get to go.. I bet you that you are on the list..

-
i hope so too, maybe i can meet you :-)
-
-
-
Yeah that would be awesome since our men probably know each other already.. haha
