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."

Thank you Leslie, but I didn't raise him by myself, he's got me, a step mom, his dad & a step dad, so he got a lot of good values from all of us.

Hello Ladies, I got a letter today also...my son is the new RCPO of division 030...he and the others will definitely get the "Thick Heads" in line one way or another. He sounded really good in his letter, but he also said that this may be one of the last letters he is able to write...boot camp pace is picking up and since he is the new RCPO his job duties have also picked up.
