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."

before it becomes a problem

My boyfriend and I have only been dating a few months this time a round but we are talking about marriage in a year. We have talked about kids and just plain growing old together. His base is only five hours from me so we are fairly use to seeing eachother at least once a month. But every time we have to part we are both obviously bummed but its kinda like we pull away from eachother a little. We don't have much to talk about it seems lately. Now I know I am over reacting because every couple has spouts where they don't feel as connected but this is my first long distance relationship and I truely believe we were ment to grow old together. We use to video chat we don't do that really any more I just don't know what to do to keep us from being distant. I always promised my self I would never give up working on my relationship and growing with it so before he is deployed on his sub in the fall I want to work on keeping us talking and closer.. less silences when we don't know what to say and ways to spice up the distance. I love him more than any thing so I am being proactive... any ideas?
