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."

Good morning!
No news, yet. I just finished my 7th letter to my SR. I am running out of things to say (that's a first). I am hoping to hear from SR soon. Although, I believe I read somewhere that "no news is good news". I wish you all a blessed day!

Hello everyone. Check your mail! I just got two letters from our son. This is the first time hearing from him. I broke down crying!!!! He is ship 13 div 049. He said it was getting harder but he is doing ok. Something about they moved to a different building. He said the food was amazing!!! And that he was gaining weight. It was soo good to finally hear from him and to know he is ok.
