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."

tmasters hope you are feeling better and hopefully you got your call. I never did get a letter this week. My son talked about your son and did not say anything was wrong, just talked about everyone getting together for dinner. Here's a big hug. 10 more days.
Can't wait to meet all of you.

I received a call today as well! Its so nice to hear his voice although the last two Saturdays he has called at the worst times, I'm just glad that I was able to talk! He is finally feeling better and we talked about what he want's to do when we come out to Chicago for graduation. I'm so glad its getting so close to our departure!
