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."

Welcome Nan and Bruce!! Wow you have gotten phone calls? Only just got the first actual letter here. We are also staying at the homewood. We got the Navy discount at 94 a night for a divided room that has a pull out sofa for our Sailor I guess you can choose between two doubles or a king and then they have larger suites also. Just have to see what fits you the best . Somehow we all will get together. The plan so far is to meet at the light dinner they serve at the Homewood.

Great Christy!!! and we do need to list all our kids last names so we won't speak spanish to them:-) it would be easier here to list them than looking at everyones info ya think? I am writing right now to Adam up to 6 pages both sides so far. Adams were barley one page for each Sunday he wrote 2 pages only one side. ok so Adams last name Frost Shannon yours will come too!

Hi Ladies, well I got a letter! Adam said its pretty boring so far . Apparently they make them write essays if they get in trouble and not run. which he find rediculous hs said he was there to get his"ass kicked" not to take english. Said the want them to write in recruit handwriting which is in all caps. The shots he said were the kind they pushes thru the pores ,its faster but burns a lot. Said nothing about his wisdom teeth being pulled so maybe he won't have to. This week is the first week of training so he hopes it will be more active.
Well thats a relief. Kinda funny he thinks its not tough enough. But things should get busy now that processing is done. OK has there been a decision on the shirts I know we are doing the Navy for mom but is there a color or just pick our own?
