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."

Still no call this weekend but I know they will be busy. My SR looks so different in the photo of Div 082. I'm thinking maybe he had his wisdom teeth pulled the day before. Getting excited about the countdown and looking forward to arriving in the windy city a week from tomorrow! I'm wondering if I should be looking for a nice restaurant to have dinner with my SR and make reservations at this point?? He told me he's dying for my chocolate chip cookies while on liberty so I need to do some baking before I go.
