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."

Law dog 247, that is where my son is. Our letter came on 6/9. You can call the recruiter and ask if it doesn't come soon.

My husband and I mailed 5 letters in the last two days. We got the address yesterday. I hope my SR smiles for a few minutes when he gets them, I printed a picture we took of his brother, his sister, niece,nephew and my husband and me at his Anchors Aweigh party on paper and wrote a short note in the side lines. I also printed out one of the questioners on the N4M's website and sent it with more moleskin strips in another envelope. I am trying to give him a variety of things to read. Tomorrow's letter will be about his nephew's Allstar's tournament and his grandmother's birthday party. We have 41 days, 13 hours until PIR. Can not wait.
