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."

I am glad you found us here. My son is staying in GL for A school. Is yours? If not where is he going next?
My younger son is going to go into the airforce. I hope they have a group like this. If not I am going to come back here and help others on what to expect. There is so much support here to help each other through this time.

Less than two weeks now! His last letter said he has learned he needs to salute his brother-in-law. I should ask him if he realizes his grandfather is another one. He also said they had gotten their dress blues and they were "kind of neat". I'm so excited we get to see them march in like that. It will be an unforgettable experience for sure.
Has your SR said anything about when they will take off for Conn? I am not sure my husband understands how limited our time might be with him. I hope they have connected. It should be easier now that they know some other SR's with the same MOS.

Hi Everyone! Only nine days to go. I printed off the parking passes this morning. If I hadn't seen the posts I would have forgotten. I reread the form letter just to make sure I didn't forget anything. We received another letter yesterday asking for his contacts so I mailed those off with a small bottle of solution and a case. Hope it makes it without a problem. I guess they can wear them for graduation. Sounds like he doesn't like the Navy issue glasses. lol Also received the ribbons I ordered. They're great!
