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."

I will check with him and find out what his flight information is. I know he leaves Charlotte, NC mid-morning, then goes to Atlanta, then straight to Seattle. Thanks for the offer.

Cindy we are flying in on Wed, the 23. Our son will be picking us up at the airport. I think we will have room if he needs a ride to base.

Thank you ladies, you are all very nice. We are enjoying our time with him, he leaves the day before Thanksgiving. I think he will like the base, C school should keep him busy. Hopefully he will not get too bored before it starts, I will let him know that he has an invitation for Christmas dinner Kim, thank you.

Hope that your son gets to come home before reporting to Whidbey Cindy.

Our son has to report to Whidbey on November 25, he starts C school in January and then deploys to join up with his squadron in March. We are hoping he can come home before going to Whidbey, will find out tomorrow for sure, his chief said his orders were messed up. He is going to let him know in the morning what to do.
