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."

trust me, i'd rather be living in the area. when i made the trip 4 years ago i had to fly my oldest "non-birthed" daughter and her daughter home because her dad died so i made the whole trip driving myself (turned into a 23 hour trip). this time i'll have son and sil with me but sil has no license and son has never driven a LARGE truck much less towing a car so i'll again be doing a majority of the driving. wish i could just blink my eyes and we're there, lol. she mentioned in "the letter" that i could bring my grandson too as he won't count against the 4. nope, sorry, know you miss him but he's 3 years old. me, a 19 year old, a 27 year old and a 3 year old all in the front of a u-haul for 20+ hours, nope, not gonna happen, lol

This is prob a crazy question, but if our kids are in the same ship and division do you think they know each other?
-

Well there are probably 80+ of them. But since they are supposed to work as a team, chances are they do. I sent a questionnaire to my SR to see who she knows so I can double check here. I probably won't get a response for over a week, but who knows.
