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."

Well here, we are low on salt, so I guess it is ok to get into an accident or run someone over so we can save on salt. LOL

We don't have a lot of snowing lately but it is very cold!

Yes, you are right about that, I would talk with Stephen with first names and then he would say last name, I did not know last names.

We sent Stephen somethings over the weekend and he told me you just go to the post office on base (when you have time) and you can pick up your mail.

I am just trying to be there for him, we made a real connection those 4 days we were together and he really needed someone.

I did tell Dan to tell his mom about the site but so far I have not seen her on here.

His parents did not come to PIR and so we took him in on their liberty, we are keeping in touch, and he said he was in a temporary housing for now, does not know when school would start, he has no address yet and I was just wondering if someone on line knew him maybe their son would be rooming with him.

Stephen had a class about sex, love, marriage the first day he was in FL, and this week he is in class about money, how to say, spend wisely. OH BOY! LOL Did anyone elses Sailor have classes like these?
