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."

The Classes used to be about 50 people and lately have gone to 100 candidates broken into two companies. 14-10 was broken into Charlie and Delta. Your LO was assigned to one or the other. They will tell you which one so you can add it to the address on their mail
eg Class 14-10 C or 14-10 D. -

Until you find out which class he is in just address the labels as 14-10. He will get it.

Ohhh ok, i havent written any yet .. feel kinda bad about it, but before he left he didnt give me an address, he just said to wait untill he writes me and then write back, but i feel like maybe i should write at least one already, since you guys helped me with the address..... i just hope he will get it if i do write him. Miss him so so so bad
