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."

GMA - I think that would be fun if you did a roadtrip with your grandson! Think of the memories you both would have ;-)
Mine isn't anywhere near leaving for a carrier yet. He's still in NY - waiting for his prototype class to start. Once it starts it should be about another 6 months (as long as the reactor doesn't go down!). After that he will be done with schooling and then will head out to a carrier.
