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."

Hi Susan
Jessica is doing well. She finished her freshman year. She's working at a camp this summer cooking. Aaron is having his struggles, especially with money. I'm so glad you are helping the other mothers who come on board. You're good like that. Take care and love.

Yes, your assumption is correct. You won't hear from him in a while.

Hi Susan, Yes, I have found SubMoms. It is loaded with information. Also, the chief of his division called me and welcomed me. I thought that was very unexpected and extremely caring. He did mention a little about emails but no one gave me an address including my son and all of a sudden I can't reach him so I am assuming..... My son loves being in San Diego. It was his first choice.

Hi Susan, Where is your house in NJ? I am from NJ and my parents and sister still live there. I live just north of San Francisco and have for the last 31 years. I have lived in Marietta, GA, too and my brother still lives there. Is your son still with the USS San Francisco?

Hi, Susan. How are you and your family doing? How is your son? Aaron has been home for a few months now. He is going to school in the fall. He is working (not a job he was trained for) and living with a roommate. I miss this interaction with y'all. I'll never completely drop out.

Hi Elizabeth, he needs to give you his email address in advance for the boat. However, I know there is a certain protocol they follow for each sailor's email address, such as certain letters with their name.

Can someone tell me how they received the email for their sailor on the San Francisco? Did you get it from the first email they sent to you or did your sailor give it to you in advance?

Thanks, Susan
