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."

RYguysmom, My son has been in Japan since July and seems to like it there. I was able to chat with him through the internet, but have not talked with him since he left. He was flown out to his ship three weeks ago as it was deployed when he arrived in Japan.
I did receive an email from him yesterday needing some info for his E4 that he left here when he came home on leave. He said he isn't seasick, but sleeping is taking some getting used to with the constant movement of the ocean.
I really expect little to no communication from him while he is out to sea, but I do stalk the ships official pages hoping to catch a glimpse of him. :) I just keep reminding myself he is doing what he wants to do.
Here are a couple recent public pictures of his ship, and I know he is in there somewhere. :)
