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 are on the Eastern Shore. Live in a little town called Princess Anne. I took a group picture of the Navy group leaving that Monday from MEPS. I wonder if your son is in it. It should be in my photos.

My son called me first and I told him he better call Boo (great grandmother) to make her night. She has worried about him since he left. Last call was to his girlfriend. He said he was getting his mail that made me feel better.
