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."

So I was kinda wondering how does everyone really feel about the photos..I posted so many it almost shows my sons character. I am tempted to take them down...I just feel that if the photos did jeapordize his safety I would not want to be the one to cause that. So I am thinking maybe its not so important to have the photos? What does everyone think on this topic? They tell Seals not too!

I had read when they are in uniform we cant hang on them or hug them long and the girlfriends can not kiss them passionatly... I know when they are in uniform they have to act with the utmost respect which is the way it should be.. I need to make sure I dont wear mascara that day and get it on him..

We will all be there together on June 25th shedding tears and smiles and DEEP PRIDE for what they all have accomplised, husbands, sons or daughters... : ) I am so excited and anxious for June 25th.. Everyone says it will be here before we know it but right now it feels like an eternity away.
