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 am so sorry- all info went to my ex also. They shared NOTHING. I called the recruiter who was great. My son left July 25th went to Great Lakes the 27th and his PUR date is 9/21. There are many discussions on here that will help you get all the information, start by calling the local recruiter and tell them you are him Mom and have not receved an address. They did not ask me, but others have said they need a social security number. Good Luck and God Bless...
