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."

Stephen, is 21, will be 22, March 10th. My husband and I are coming. Stephen asked two of his friends to come but they will have to come on their own because we are coming up on Wed., for the meet and greet, my sister is going to watch my dog. As far as I know he is going to Florida. How terrible, I will have to visit him where it is WARM, my parents live in FL, but they would be around 4 hours from my son.

Your puppy sounds cute! My daughter cannot make Stephen's graduation, she is leaving for Central America with school tomorrow, Stephen felt really bad but she could not cancel her trip. It would of been nice to have the whole family together, I don't know when she will see Stephen again.

My son brought home a puppy around 6 months ago, I just love her Daisy, but when he left for boot camp a friend took her, my dog Shawna does not get along with her, we had Daisy for around 10 days over the holidays, I miss her so much, she went back a few days ago, Stephen (my son) ask about her all the time. We like animals!
