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."

wait..everyone I know that said their son was G&G got the whole day on friday..then generally left at 2 or 3am that night. Hmmm..wonder when we find out if they ALL are G&G. When you guys talk to your guys...please ask them..mine calls his GF (grrrrrrrrr) and she doesn't tell us whats going on. He may tell me in letters? Eventually he will call I guess? Someone also said, they don't even know if they are G&G until like 2 or 3 weeks before PIR so lets all keep our ears and eyes open. ;-)

Hey guys! Yeah on the calls and the letters coming! THREE weeks down almost. Jason's wife..yeah..sucks on the wisdom teeth I bet but, they can't have these guys out to sea or in a sub and have them act up I guess? I had Aaron's pulled THANK GOD...heard having them in BC isn't the best but....the teeth pulling in bc is probably ok cause others get them too and misery loves company? I don't think they give them time to think about the discomfort?!? Glad you heard from Jason and that all is well! 5 more weeks till PIR babe!

He called! Talked to his gf for 10 minutes. Very much a relief for us and her. When he called last Sunday and no one answered he was feeling very much abandoned. Now he has received mail and talked to his gf so is very much relieved. He didn't mention the IT or the fighting, that's disappointing. I hope they can work things out. 3 weeks down. Yeah!
