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."

Nancy Thank you for posting that LINK. When I went through boot camp in the '80's they didn't have anything like that. Now that I watched that video I know what they are really going to be going through and that all of us loved ones need to be praying for them to pass. It is going to be a rough night for all the recruits on Tuesday, lets all be praying for them. I am so proud of my daughter Stefanie and I can't wait to see her next Friday!!!!!
