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."

It wouldnt let me reply to yours either.. Anyway, I heard if your married and they have to be in A-school longer then 6 months you can go too. I don't know your situation, but either way you can always visit him. Even if it is far away.

yes, that is true. If you are married and their A-school is longer than 6 months you can go too. We have talked about it but we will just have to wait and see what happens after boot camp :) but no matter what I will definitely have to visit.

My boyfriend is ship 11 division 081. He left on the 9th. I am really hoping his form letter comes soon! I want a definite date to start getting excited for! I am hoping right now that it's March 9th, based on everything else that I have seen.
