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."

My son called this afternoon. I just went to change laundry, missed his call. But his girlfriend said she talked to him and he sounded great. Was in a good mood. That makes me so happy.

Still on cloud nine from my call yesterday! He said they have had to do a bunch of ITE's because people keep talking when they aren't suppose too. He said at the beginning of one of these ITE's they did arm circles for 10 minutes! I don't think I could do it for 1 minute!! lol

Yeeeep. lol That's exactly what my SR told me. He's quite perturbed by the whole thing.
It was phenomenal to hear his voice, though. I'll never forget how it made me feel. = )

I'm doing my best to figure out a way up there. He never asks me for anything, and he said he really wants me there.
