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."

My son's PIR is 4/4. I can not wait to see him. He sounds so good when he gets to call. We have all of our plans in place. He just asked that we take him for pizza while we are there. Said the food is good but too healthy and is craving something sweet. The sweetest thing is the fruit punch.
