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."

It's sooooo nice to be able to have the communication back with my Son. He is staying at GL for his A school which is only about 4 hours from me. Already planning another trip up in a few weeks and take his dog that he misses and wants to see. :-) Where's your Sailor going to A school?

We got our call earlier. My sailor sounded tired but excited about seeing us on Friday and spending the weekend with us. I don't think there has been a time my son has wanted to really spend a weekend with us, his parents, since he turned 13. LOL! Congratulations to all the Sailors and Families of Ship 11 Division 383 !!!
