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."

Just got my letters for the week from Shane. It sounds like their final test is tomorrow and if they don't pass they are held back another 2 weeks! The good news is that if everyone in the division passes they all get to make phone calls everyday until boot camp is over! That would be amazing...
