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."

Chaela--
I know exactly what you mean. When I got the box, the clothes inside were damp, and all I thought about was the extra laundry. I was pretty upset at my guy, I had to clean the gutter because he didn't get it done. Now I'm waiting on a letter with his PIR date. Chicago in December will be a whote lot different than our fog here in the valley.

Hi Chaleadiane--
Fresno is not too from Coarsegold, I go thru Fresno everyday on my way to work in Lemoore. Your girl left for BC about two weeks before my guy. I'm so glad you've heard from her. I've only gotten the box of his stuff so far. I'm glad to hear that I'm not the only one having problems coping with the kid being gone...
