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."

Has he looked at the commissary. I have saw smoked salmon before. I don't know anything about salmon but I googled and it said depending on how it is packaged it may not need to be refrigerated.

It is super humid right now because it is the rainy season. Coming from FL/GA area we are used to heat and it is actually cooler here in Guam, which I thought was strange. I don't even have to use my air conditioner half the time. I know the Girls scouts will be selling at the commissary and a couple other places around the island. I had to check the weather channel it is 86 degrees with a nice 13mph breeze blowing through.

You can buy Girl Scout cookies on Island. My daughter will start selling them after Halloween. You can send regular cookies they hold up fine. You can also send chocolate as long as you send it priority mail it will be fine. It is not *that* hot in Guam about 85 degrees. If you don't send stuff priority mail that is where you run into the problem. Parcel post comes in on a bot and takes weeks to get here. Priority mail takes 3-5 days.

Tiffany, I usually talk to my mom in the mornings. Which makes it about 5 or 6 pm her time. Or I call people later in the evenings say 10 pm and it is morning there. I think we are like 16 hrs ahead of my hometown. It is a big adjustment. I find my self calling my mom after lunch and no one answers. Then I remember it is like 2 am there....lol

Hi Niki, I could be wrong but I was told dependents are only allowed to accompany if it is a 3 year tour. I am not sure about the E3/E4 thing. You can always come over non command sponsored. I would not recommend it though because it is pretty expensive here, especially if he wont be getting married cola and housing $$.

hello everyone. My son just landed in Guam yesterday. He checked in and will be working at the hospital for the next 2yrs. My cousin meet him at the airport just to make sure he was safe for me. I love my family! I haven't heard from him today. I hope he had a good 1st day at work.
Anybody else have a corpsman stationed at the Naval Hospital?
