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."

So great to hear that your Aircrewman is enjoying his time in the Navy. Just makes your heart get a bit of a squeeze to see how far they have come in life doesn't it:)

Dunes: My son is in Oahu - KBay, not Whidbey, but he loves his job and has been deployed twice now. Loved that too (mostly anyway-- got kinda HOT in North Africa)
He's been in the Navy since 2008, and has never regretted his decision to follow the aircrew path. ;)
