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."

Got a letter today- short and sweet- they are so ready for BattleStations and so ready to see friends and family. Says to make room in my suitcase because I need to take home $200 worth of pictures and Navy gear he bought for me to wear- I'm sure its 'Navy Mom' t-shirts in every color.
I'm so looking forward to hearing his voice!!

I got a similar letter on Thursday. I had to laugh, because this is the kid who would hide those school picture flyers so I would not buy them! When it came to his graduation pictures, it was like he was being tortured. Family occasions, nothing. Now he is telling me he bought this and that, two different poses because he like them both and that this frugal kid spent over $200 on photos! Wow, they must be great, lol!
Can't wait to see them AND him!

I read this from our first letter on the Department of Navy letterhead : "Children ages 12 and younger as well as active duty, retired and military personal do not count toward the maximum number of guest and do not need to be listed."
So you should be fine zachsmom! We have 7 people coming. We were hoping the ones not on the list would be able to get in on standby, but I guess not. That's OK, they are just excited to see him and are teasing those of us going that they will be sleeping in at the hotel, lol!

I'm not a morning person so I'd love to be sleeping in- but I'll be there (with my coffee) bright and early to see my SR!! I'm sure a twelve year old has a small rear -end on the bleachers- we'll squish closer for him!
