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's address is Chambers Ave. I don't know barracks number. I believe one of his roommates is from Punta Gorda, Fl.

Hey Ladies,
I just found out that old friend from High school and the area I grew up is in Charge of MAA program at Pensacola. If you guys need some help or questions I could probably get them from him. He is a great guy. He has been doing Naval Security since 1994 I think. Just putting this out there if someone needs some special assistance. :)

We stayed at the Bay Breeze Inn in Gulf Breeze it is about 12 miles from the base. We didnt know it was that far away it was an ok place we wanted something inexpensive. They do have a motel there on base except it was full when we were there.
