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."

Adding a comment about those boot camp ( birth control?) glasses. my son and the guys in his boot camp ship didn't mind so much. If they got broken, or scratched it meant their "good"glasses weren't getting that bad treatment. They wore their own glasses for individual photos, and did not have them on in the group picture. He is in Coronado now with 13 others waiting to start SWCC classes, I think in May.

Lori, when is his PIR? Need me to ride with you to help drive?
I am a teacher and off all summer (well, almost - I teach for the college a few nights a week - but I can work around that).

Lori - after reading about your dilemma - I went into my kitchen and laying on the counter was an old thank you card. It says, "Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the number of moments that take our breath away."
When those doors open at PIR and you see the sea of Sailors - it is one of those breath taking moments that I will treasure all my life!!!
Just a thought to ponder over. Sorry to probably add issues to your dilemma!!
