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."

Tell me about it!! Same here. So things are getting easier don't you think? First week sucked!!!

Did your guy leave the 5th too? but yes I'd say it's getting easier and harder at the same time! lol I really miss him and want to talk to him but I'm really excited for him and graduation! the first week did suck but now we are closer to getting letters from them so that helps!

Lol agreed! And yes I miss mine too so very much! I'm so glad they have this website, he's actually the one who showed me it... lol so I wouldnt be sad all the time. It really helps knowing you're not the only one. Yep! Mine left the 5th too. It was the saddest day ever! But don't worry we.only have 49 more days until March 2nd. Yayyyyy! Lol I have this countdown on my phone and everything. My friends think I'm pathetic but its OK.

Yeah I'm thankful for this website too because I've learned a lot from him! He told me to join a website like this but his mom is the one who told me about this one! lol yeah March 2nd isn't very far away at all really!

Yea! Maybe we'll all even get to actually meet eachother.

yeah maybe!

Awesome! What day did he leave? How are you handling it?

aw, how come his grad is so late?

oh no.. that's crazy :/   That sucks really bad!! but not too much longer now... 

March 2nd is their graduation? Did you find that out through the letter? We haven't received a letter stating that information yet, but hopefully soon!
