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."

Hey everyone. Haven't checked in here in a while. Got to have my daughter home for Christmas and New Year's. She is still in A School in San Diego. Is waiting for another class which will begin in April. Then when that is finished she will report to Hawaii. That girl has got it hard ; ). We will get to see her once more before she heads to Hawaii, but after that it is gonna be tough. Probably be a while before we get her for the holidays again. It is nice to read about how everyone is doing.

She's in Norfolk. I hate you didn't get to see him for the holidays. My daughter wanted to surprise me so she told me she wasn't going to be able to come home. She missed Thanksgiving and left right b4 Christmas, but I enjoyed her never the less. I was just happy to see her. I hadn't seen her since Graduation.
Duhhuh I'm not sure about the ship, i will find out.
