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."

Laura Lee - I have not heard anything from my Sailor either.. I cant stop watching the news as well.. I just pray that this operation gets handled SWIFTLY... God Speed to all the forces out their fighting this EVIL... I did receive my 1st actual phone call from my Sailor on Monday.. It was so glourious to hear his voice.. I didnt even know it was him at first... I said who is this and he said your SON.. And then I chatted on line with him briefly on Wed to talk our our NCAA brackets and that was the last I talked with him.. : ( I will keep you posted if I hear anything..

Debra: YEAH for a phone call... What great pictures of your son... : ) It looks like it is always sunny and beautiful where they are.. I never see a cloudy day... LOL.. I am sure they have them but the sun always helps with keeping their dobbers up VS gloomy cloudy days all the time.. Thank you for sharing the pictures.. I cant wait to get to see them when they roll back into town... : )
