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."

i wanted to!!!!!! like i wanted to take HIM out to dinner, i wanted to have all this alone time with him and stuff. but if i told her i did she would have asked about it....idk....this is going to be a L-O-N-G trip....like no joke
-
-

Yes, i dont know i have heard sooo many different things from people who have had friends go through boot cap, some say they loved it and others said it sucked bu its worth it in the end
-
-
sometimes it feels like my other friends get fed up when i talk to them about Steven being gone....they act like i should be over it or something but when you talk to someone who is going through the same thing or has been through the same thing they understand better and dont seem fed up
-
