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."

it is defiantly been interesting the only thing we don't like but are having to live with is the deployments my son is 6 yrs old and in the 6 yrs my hubs has been here a total of maybe 3 yrs of his life :( but this is all he know so he is either handling it very well or he is hiding his feelings towards his daddy being gone. but it is our life and we are doing what we can with what we got haha..

why Jennifer? what happened?
I'm 27 (I'll be 28 in may), and my husband and I decided it would in our best interest if he joined the navy at his late age b/c I want a good life for us and our son. I NEVER thought our life would turn up this way, its going to be interesting.

My Husband does look older then he actually is. I'm the older one out of both of us but no one guesses it when we first meet. I'm 23 and we are 1yr 11mn apart. I got carded at the gym in the hotel we stayed at for our honeymoon because you had to be at least 16 to use the equipment 0_o
He gets so frustrated too at the people who won't grow up and act like adults. It's simply amazing what people do.

Another older one here, too! My husband will be 30 in August. (I'll be 26 in May so I'm younger but not super young.) He's getting a little fed up with a lot of the young, single kids who won't stay out of trouble...

lol there were tons of guys in school who looked way older than what they were.. my husband will be 30 in april.

I've seen a lot of older guys around the school here in Groton. It's a little confusing because I see them and think they must be an instructor or something and it turns out they are students like my Husband, who just turned 21 this year.

Oh cool mine is 30 ... I thought mine was the only crazy enough to join older..LOL

well my husband is 33, he has an assoc degree, so thats why he is E3 right out of BC. So far the navy is amazing. The community, from what I see on this site, is nothing like I've ever experienced before. I really hope we get base housing. And yes, I would love my son, who is now 9 months old, to experience different cultures.
