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."

I currently live in Nacogdoches, but until 2003 lived all my life in the Houston-Galveston area, mainly in Webster, Texas City and La Marque. My sister currently lives in Dickinson and my best friend still lives in La Marque, so we go there pretty often. My best friend and I love going to La Marque High School's football games, so I will probably be down there quite a bit within the next few months, especially when the playoffs start. My son went into the Navy in July 2011 and is a hospital corpsman, currently in Naples, Italy.

Hello, my name is Shannon and I live in Santa Fe. My son just left for boot camp on Monday 10/1. Once he graduates he will go to San Antoino for Hospital Corpsman school. I am glad he will be close but I also know it isn't for very long.
