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 finished Hellweek with 281 and I remember how you are feeling right now. The hoarse voice worried me so much the first week, but then I realized what he was doing and I gave that worry up. I was lucky to get lots of txts and a few phone calls during the week. I learned fast to listen and not ask too many questions. He needed my support but not my worries. I didn't want to be a burden on him so I stayed on top of things by reading "The Warrior Elite". This enabled me to talk with him about specifics without his having to explain. Instead of saying, what did you do, how do you feel? I asked things like... how were the boats today? Tell me about the wave heights....
Anyway.... pray a lot and know that we are all here to support each other.
