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."

I wish I could make it down for the home coming. I will just have to wait till he gets things straightened out with his car being towed while it was on base. After that he should be able to get a flight home.

Mary, what does your son do on the ship or his job? Mine is a CTR.

Marcy---no they are not ported from I was able together from him. They had just finished a replenishment excercise and he was calling to tell me that he and the others were enjoying the treats we sent. He could not say much either. I hope they are home on the scheduled time whatever that may be.

Danielle, I see you are from Pittsburgh. I am just an hour north of there, Kittanning. How cool you are close to me.

Danielle are you able to go to the homecoming? I know I won't be able to. I really wished I could though.

received an e mail today from my son. no mention of things being delayed but they probably are not allowed to say. let's all pray that this will not delay their homecoming.

Mary, do you know if they are ported yet, is that why he called you? My sailor said they should be soon. I can't wait to talk to him. I just hope I am home when he does it is better to talk to him on the home phone than the cell phone.
Yes, Lorraine, let's hope. and pray they come home when they are suppose to.
