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."

Kathryn thanks for your grade.I remember that when I was a child, a few moons ago, I always was writing every message I could find, either spanish or english, and liked to hear english songs.
Today my son listen to songs in both languages,he does'nt know I did the same.
When we are watching a movie or listening a song if I don't understand he explain it to me.
In the Navy Ofc, told him that he was the 1st AZ that they know of in the Metro Area;God bless him and help him,but he is very excited and willing to do the best on his part...
How come after A school they have to wait? How often that happen? I guess after their training they just want to start rightaway.

Thanks for the card,I loved it! I'm sorry you are not feeling well; hope you are feeling better.
Thank you for your wishes for my son,the same to you,your family and of course, your sailor.
This site is been a blessing for me,not just because I share what I feel,what I think about my son leaving to the NAVY (Nov 17) I'm trying to change my ideas of what I'll be doing with myself when I'll be on my own;and of course I feel that my english,at least written is improving (dictionary is at my side anyway).I know I make my mistakes,but I'm not that afraid to write anymore...
Thank you again!!

Mimi, thank you for the advice.About jobs,here in PR.,I guess is one of the worse;there are almost 17,000 jobs and counting, lost in the government and the private sector is terrible,too.There are lines in the Labor Dept asking for any kind of help and compensation etc...There are job fairs but, is not enough,too many people out;others are leaving not only to the states but to foreign countries,actually my middle son is in Fl working in a hospital.Because that's another situation,very low salary and you get to do all,thanks to God I'm retired.So Mimi please don't despair,I know is easier to say than to do it;you'll be in my prayers asking God to help in that matter,too.Thanks for your help...Have a nice day!!
