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 yesterday!! He is well and doing good so far. His writing was so neat that his friends could not believe he wrote it. We all got lots of laughs about that. The address was different than the form ;\letter, is that normal? Signed up for the Sarges Meet and Greet. Taking the train from Colorado. Booked on the 1st just in case of delays, so may be there a day early. Staying at the Navy Lodge.

Got a letter on Friday from my son. His friends were amused at his neat penmanship. The address was different than what was on the form letter.

Hi! Received my first real letter on Friday :) Can't wait for the first phone call. This second time around seems to be much harder, maybe because of the holidays coming up, but defiantly having a harder time with my 2nd SR in boot camp.

Got a second letter. A long one this time. He is missing home and his family. Got a pay grade raise and smoked his first PFA. No phone call yet. He apologized for that.
