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."

Masters at arms have their A school in San Antonio also. Their is currently a small group of us working with Admiral Valentin and several others to ensure that our sailors are taken care of. My job is to act as a liason with our Moms on the Navy for Moms site. Hopefully we will start to get some moms of the A school sailors here in our group.

OK there has to be more Moms in San Antonio then us 4! What's up? By the way, I am having 3 Army men/women over to my house for Thanksgiving dinner since the Navy had nothing! Someone should look into this as we need to support all the sailors in A school!

I looked into the "Adopt a Sailor" for Lackland AFB as well and they only do Air Force service members.

Ft. Sam Houston in San Antonio does not have any type of "Adopt a Sailor" for Thanksgiving dinner. However, the base does have a program for Army service members. If you are interested, call 210-221-5481 and let them know. You have to pass a security clearance and then they will give you info on having 2-4 service members join you and your family for Thanksgiving Dinner!
