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."

His diviion is still getting IT'd alot, and he said I could spend Christmas with him :( i can't afford to stay there for 10 days but he is stoked about PIR already and knows he will do great! He said all the guys make fun of him b/c he tells them he married his best friend(me) and they all think he's girly and soft! LOL but he doesn't care, and some guys have NO ONE and they cry themselves to sleep :( it was so sad! But he is doing GREAT! still hasn't mentioned the food...but I am sure he's eating well!
