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."

Hi! my son is stationed in SD and is graduating C school July 2nd. I havn't booked my flight yet because Navy Lodge only has June 30 through July 2 available. I have to find a place to stay July 3,4, and 5 in order to get cheap airline tickets. (for a 6 day stay) My son can transport, but if anyone could let me sleep on their couch those days, please e-mail me at texasappaloosa@yahoo.com. I have to book my flight asap. I could compensate you with MK, ask Kim!!! LOL. Sunscreen, etc.

Thanks for sharing the info Linda and congrats to your son Josh. My son was just home on leave and we rode with him most of the way up north before he reported back. I think he was so spoiled this time around. He enjoyed his time, had lots of fun! :-)
No Yolanda, there was no meet n greet planned.
