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."

We drove home last nite. S didn't want to stay overnite, so we made the11hr drive. Got home at 1am. What a day it was !! So happy to meet so many of you at the fantastic Meet & Greet that the Ramada put on for us !! How wonderful are they to do this for all the graduates !! ??
Now to enjoy him for a few days. Seems like the girlfriend has plans for most days. I understand that she misses him and they have so little time to be together. I will get squeezed in Christmas Eve & Christmas day !! I hope !!
Enjoy your time with your loved ones, it will go by fast. Next we will counting down graduation at their A schools !! Hope many of us will meet up again !!
