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."

His job is corpman and so far we're not sure if he is going to stay in Great Lakes or move to San Antonio. We're hoping San Antonio since we live in New Orleans...so much closer for visits. We've gotten letters and we're sending pics and letters from home too.

What's your boyfriend's job and school location?

That would be so nice! I hope he ends up in San Antonio.. my boyfriend is going to be in Florida all the way across the country from me! haha He is an AM but he's been thinking about changing it but so far nothing has changed yet. So most likely Florida.

All HM's go to Fort Sam Houston in San Antonio now a days. My hubby was an HM and the changed jobs. We are from San Antonio, I would have been nice to have him so close for A-school.
