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."

My daughter said to stay with our cars, that we're not really authorized to be anywhere else.  She siad they have to march back to barracks together, but they will get liberty call there and walk back.

Mines in the band. He said that he gets to meet us as soon as theres Liberty call.

(Which is the end of the ceremony)

And he goes to the airport at 0200. We only get a few hours, but that time wont be wasted!

Mine told me to wait by the parking garage for her after PIR and that way we can see them march back too.
Got my phone call today around 5 30. We were driving. So glad to hear everyone passed!! Almost there. See ya'll soon!!!
Chicago is a cool city! Can't wait to see my sailor!
I made it! Im just relaxing a bit and preparing for tomorrow!
I'm sitting in the airport... boarding in less than an hour. Super nervous!
Made it to the hotel. Now to scope out this place to figure out something things to do with my sailor tomorrow!
Well, ladies and gentlemen, we made it.  Our sailors are off to A school.  The weekend is over, we all had Chicago pizza and had to pack 8 weeks of lovin' into 8 hours.  What a weekend.  Congratulations to our sailors and to all of us for surviving!!!
I hope everyone is enjoying the load of stress that has been removed now that boot camp is over!!! We are on the last 6 hours of our drive from tx to sc! Can't wait to get there!
