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."

Ugh.......so sorry, how horrible! Have you looked into Western Union? They're wire transfers and he can pick up the money at a location where he is......if they have a location. I'm sure they would as Western Union is world-wide. Here's their website: http://www2.westernunion.com/
