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.

I just got back from my son's PIR and I have about 500 pictures from the whole weekend. I was fantastic! It blew me away when they all recited the Sailor's Creed. You could see how proud they were. My son looked truly happy. I can't wait to edit my pictures and then pick the best for his scrapbook. His graduation picture turned out awesome! He told me I could turn his room into my scrapbooking room. I love that boy!!

Ohhhh Jackie... I will for sure keep this tucked into my prayers! How very exciting to have that link to your brother!

It will be a bit like a time capsule for you! Hang onto those precious memories... maybe this is opening the door that she will find more to share...

Ha... my son wrote once a week... I am sure it was painful for him to write that much! I would carry the latest letter in my purse to share with everyone I saw... I did put those letters into the scrapbook in pockets so they could still be pulled out and read... there weren't that many so it made it easier! Now if I included what I wrote him... the book would be overflowing!
