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."

Ok Ladies, Just a few more days until we see our sons! We need to start our circle of prayer for Wade and keep him specifically on our minds these next couple of days. Tamme, please let us know if there is something you need our attention on. His health is the main thing at this point. I know he will do well at BS and that he is more than ready. Have you had any more calls from him?

Welcome Angela! We are glad you found us and it's never to late. Hope you can make it to the Meet and Greet.

Yep you are right Tammy...I will go on Tues to see if I can get any...but anybody who wants to ask their own recruiter "just in case" would be a good idea..we are leaving wed after I get out or school so Tues is the only day I can go ask.
