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."

Well i didnt go visit my bf because we had a family emergency i had to cancel my flight =(. But the a week later we broke up. Im planning on joining the navy soon and he is nt being supportive and im doing it regardless of what he says. But things are going pretty good i have alot keeping me busy i guess. How are you doing?

I really hope they dont kick me out but if the do my bf's mom told me i can come live at her house. So i have a place to go im not too scared about that. I bought my ticket already im going the weekend of june 4th. I cant wait i just hope everything goes good. Ill keep you in my prayers too i know its hard because i want my parents to support my decisions and have their approval in everything do but sometimes you gotta do things the hard way. It sucks and it hurts but with time things get better. Just hope for the best and hopfully they support you with your wedding plans im sure they will though.

Yea im superrr scared to tell my parents im going to see my bf regardless of what they say. I bought my ticket already and they have no idea im going to tell them a few days before my leave date. Its crazy but i gotta do what i gotta do cause their never going to letme grow up. I figured the worst is that they will kick me out so i already have a place to go incase it gets to that.

WOW well im sure they're not gonna disown you they will probably be upset but when it comes down to it your an adult and eventually their gonna have to accept that. Which is the problem im having. If you want to get married and he wants to too you just have to sit with your parents and talk to them and let them know how you feel. When they see that you made up your mind and your going to do it regardless they will start to support you because Im sure they want to be a part of your wedding. Its hard but its all a proccess.
