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."

Drill team? Does he play an instrument? My son plays the drums, I got a good side view photo of him. It was such a thrill to see. I cant imagine what they are going through right now.

I know been thinking of them all day.  Hope they stick together as a team tonight.   No instrument, they carry the rifles and march

How exciting, I was watching a youtube video on what past ceremonies were like and the guys with the guns are pretty cool.

Your letter sounds awesome!!!  How exciting for you!  I got to see a picture of my daughter front and center in the choir!!!  She looks so little compared to everyone else LOL!

Lee Ann, my son also is on the drill team.  Got a letter from my son as well. This week it was really late in coming.  Snail mail I guess. Soccermom, how wonderful that you received such a letter.  I really think they appreciate family more, don't you?  Good luck to all our SRs.  Will be praying for them.  Anyone going to the meet and greet?
