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."

Received the info about graduation and where to reside while there. Waiting on my son to tell me whether he will be Grad n' Go. I haven't received a call yet, but I'm waiting. Still sad, because I miss him

make your reservations regardless of grad and go...you won't know that until two or three weeks prior...what is his rate...and you might ask his recruiter what he thinks chances are...I here you about being sad...the letter great...but i am more tearful tonight than I have been in a week. My son has been gone three weeks and I miss him everyday. I wish he would walk through the door and go "hey mom".

Hello to all the Division 360. Have not received a phone call or real letter yet. I am in the Seattle area, and find mail to be a little slow, especially from friends and family in California. Thanks for all the information.

Hey Josie,
the letter is coming you will see. I'm quite sure the the boy is great. Hang in there -

Cooper Mom: thanks for your encouraging words. I have been writing a short letter every day. I also printed copies of pictures from facebook friends and relativies, printed them on a letter sized page with 9 small pictures, sort of a mini collage! I read somewhere they like pictures. Good evening ....

Letter came today. He says that his RDC's are saying they are picking things up pretty quick. Should be able to call in a week or two. He sounds good and has passed his pt and swim tests. Josie, his letter was dated 9/26 so if you didn't get one today, you should get one soon. Also, he has been getting his mail and says to keep sending letters.

Hey Josie,
I got a phone call from my baby, on Friday around 3:00. It was from an 847 area code. Did you get one. And son also said that they were doing real good. He says he clean the ship(building) and that he has to stand watch as well. Let me know if your son has call. Take care and have a good evening -
