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."

Thanks for letting us know they are getting mail. Mark has had me on hold as to mailing anything to him. He had to leave behind a blanket his aunt made him and just received when they evacuated so I learned to crochet last week so I can make him an american flag afghan. Believe it or not I'm about 1/3 finished! Not bad for a lefty.
Have a great day ladies!! :)

My son is Mark. He's been an adrenaline junkie from the time he was born. I was not surprised when he came and told me what he wanted his job to be an air rescue swimmer and then did it. He's pretty amazing I THINK. :)
He's been in almost 6 yrs now and I can't believe I am just finding this blog. You all sound so very nice and I love how you share your stories. I look forward to the read on a more regular basis.

I am new to this but want to say that I am so thankful there are this many mom's on line writing about their babies. GROWN BABIES but our babies all the same. My son is in Misawa also. He was to come home and propose to his girl next weekend. Obviously that isn't going to happen. He is so awesome! We have called him Batman for all the years of growing up and now I have seen footage of him in action. Thank you all for talking on line. It's very sweet to see the love on this website.
