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."

You will love Hawaii. It is so beautiful and relaxing. There is always a breeze blowing and it is not hot or humid. I would love to go back and stay for another vacation. My favorite vacation so far.

Thank you. My son is so excited about going. He has been in for over a year and a half and is so happy to finally be finishing with school and getting stationed somewhere. He is looking forward to the surfing and beaches. I am looking forward to visiting :)

My sailor rented a house with several other sailors and it is really nice. All open windows with breezes. Not near the water, but a relaxing place to go after work.
Bought a new car this last year and is paying for it while deployed. They all found a nice area to scuba dive too. Just ask around, most locals know the best places. Good luck, hope your sailor finds a good place to stay.

Jennifer - It's a great ship! My sailor joined the ship (also right out of C school) in December and has had a great time. After a month or so - he even stopped hitting his head and shins on everything ;-)
