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."

Currently in Boot Camp?
My fiance left for boot camp on November 10th. We're almost a month into it now & I would really like to meet some other ladies with their men currently at Basic or in A-School!
My fiance's PIR is in January then he's going to Pensacola, FL for A-School.
Anyone else in the same boat? ;)
I'd love to get to know you ladies & share our stories!
