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."

She said she liked the food pretty good but really misses soft drinks. in the letter on the 18th she said somethign about thursday they would be starting hell week. Plus they were suppose to be going to marlin spike? Maybe spelled wrong. Hard to read her writing somethimes. Not sure what it is but she said it should be fun and was really excited about it. Anyone know what that maybe?

Got an envelope of letters today. They were postmarked the 19th. All seems well in Great Lakes. They had a holiday for MLK last Monday. He said the food was good but he was craving something fried and a soda. Says he eats a lot of fruit and they have to drink a lot of water. All in all the letters were positive. Said they even got to catch some of the football games last weekend and maybe will even get to watch the superbowl but he didn't know for sure. :)
Have a great week everyone!!
