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."

We will see you there.. Have a safe trip.
Hey Debbie!! Yes we are finally there just a few more days .. yay!! Yes my husband and I are going to the Meet and Greet at the Ramada on Thursday.. Was you planning on going as well?
Mael is my son - did your son leave from Portland Oregon on 8/21/12? I see you are from Vancouver - when are you leaving for Chicago? We should exchange numbers and keep in touch - are you renting a car, where are you staying? I am so ready for graduation - miss him dearly - Sebastian has only mentioned that some of his friends parents are on or involved in navyformoms.com -
Okay now I can see them!! Thanks for posting pics. I'm gonna get Nate one for sure!!
Thanks Debbie!! I don't see them on your page yet bc I think any photos you upload have to be approved before they post. But I'll keep my eye out for them on ur page =)
Hey - Thanks for your post - I have been reading regularly and about fell out of my chair when I saw you write about Austin! I sure hope his foot is okay! We are from North Carolina. Austin is in ship 03, div337 as well. Great to get to know you!
I really like them too! I haven't come across a USS Hopper coin yet. I did see one that was called the Navy Ethos coin and there was also one that is NS Great Lakes. Too bad there wasn't one that said "Boot Camp".
I'm thinking we all might get letters this week too!
Take care
That's awesome! Now I really hope Kevin and Nathan become friends!! It seems like they have quite a few naval stations as well in FL. The ones I have looked at seem to be pretty nice places to live =)
