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."

We haven't heard anything from our son since last week's phone call. Thanks to you, JHenderson, I've been in direct contact with boymom3 and written to our son about his two extra graduation tickets. The next step is up to him and boymom3's son. Is it obvious to everyone that I'm trying to keep names out of this posting?!?
We made our hotel and car rental reservations this week. Airline tix were done a couple of weeks ago. We're ready! Can't wait to meet you all in person.

Thanks for the more specific time on the I'm a Sailor call my son wasn't sure if it would come the 26 or 27. I have written him and asked if he wanted anything specific and he hasn't said anything. He always comments on how busy they are so I don't think he has given alot of thought yet, he said he is usually so exhausted at bed time! So, glad to hear all the news time is counting down. Have a wonderful day!!
