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."

Hi there MeLinda:)!
Where in Arizona? The weather should be beautiful in November . . .
Also doable would be either San Francisco Bay Area in October or San Diego in November . . . -

I am not for sure where in AZ, but will find out. The only thing about San Francisco would be all the hills. Of course since I would crew, not a big deal for me. Anyone walking would need to ensure they get some training on hills/inclines and such.
I would really like San Diego, but knowing my luck my son would not be stationed there then. He is do back in OCT and hopefully will have orders to AW school. If not he is planning to transfer to the Coast Guard. -
