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 dont blame you for freaking out.. I would be too.. They can make more than one. I told my son he could call his girlfriend first and use his time with her as long as she called me and gave me every detail.. He tried her no answer so he called me and talked for a half hour he was going to try her again and his little brother. He left his little brother a message.. : )
COME ON 226 CALL!!!!

Janet - Did he have a bank account open at home that he is having his money deposited into? You can check that if you have his information. Dustin opened an account with the Navy Bank.. He was with Chase and hated it and his recruiter told him to open one up with the Navy because they have great rates on loans..
