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 received a phone from my son... It was so great hearing his voice...He asked me after PIR if we could go out to eat because he only has 12 minutes to eat and he doesn't have time to finish it. He had his wisdom teeth out last Friday...

No letter today. I was so happy to hear his voice yesterday. He mentioned that he was glad that he had choosen to enlist in the Navy. He did say the cuss a lot but at the same time said they were nice. You are right Fritz4at - it definiately will be interesting to see "boys to men" actually means. Your SR will be a good example for others at boot camp. My son asked me if we were going out to eat after PIR. I told him most likely....lol
How is everyone doing?
