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."

Hi Maria,
Thanks for responding. My son, Jarvis, graduates on Dec 21 from Great Lakes. Yes, we are driving and I have to provide driving directions from Great Lakes to Arkansas and then to A school in Meridian, MS.
Jarvis is in Ship 11 Div 038. When does your son graduate and what ship and division?

My son also graduates Dec 21. He is on Ship 11 Div 032. I did not send the itinerary from New Jersey to Meridian because I haven't booked his flight yet. I guess when i do that, I will send that along to. Is your son going as an AZ?
