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 also wanted to let you all know, I had sent Dustin that note from the Sailor dad about boot camp that I posted above. He said he read it to the whole DIV. And they all appreciated and are begining to understand what he had to say.
Janet : Your welocme..They will get a bank statement at the base saying what is deposted they get paid on the 1st and 15th.. That was one thing I told Dustin today. I said at least you get paid to take this abuse... LOL He said yeah no doubt..
jih: Dustin will be heading to Meridian Mississippi after bootcamp.. SWAMP LAND.. and lots of critters and bugs... Much like Florida... His brother and I are going to go down and spend a weekend with him when he gets free weekends... YIPEE... I cant wait for that... I asked him if he knew about when he would leave yet after graduation as some only have 3 hours so we would only get an hour and a half with him. I am hoping he has all day and doesnt have to fly out until Saturday. He said sometimes they have to stay at GL for a month until there is an opening..
