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."

Mine is stationed out of Norfolk also, but living in the dry dock area (Newport News) since that is where his ship is.

Vicki, so glad you got your call! Mine is leaving Meridian tomorrow...his brother is picking him up on base...they are driving to AL to visit some family before heading home Sunday for the rest of his leave. He is glad to finally get out of there....been finished school since April 1st, but has loved all of his buddies. Many will also be in Norfolk, so that's good. Hope you get another call soon! Can he stay in e-mail contact with you while deployed?
