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."

Another fun night at the NFMs - I have appointments today and tomorrow so my time will be limited to the evenings for a couple of days. If Molly would just put that Million $$ in our bank account, I could give up my day job!!!
Catch up with everyone later today - maybe some of you will get a letter today!!! Our mail from BC comes on Thursdays so I have to live thru everyone else on Wednesdays.

Wade called last night at 1:45 am. It appears that someone put a note on his door to CALL HIS MOTHER. Way to go spook! Wade said,you know he Navy takes care of me now. I am fine. He will be there another 9 months, loves school, but has not offically started his A school. He will be changing addresses in 2 weeks. I at least know that he is alive and doing well. I did raise him to be independent, but really! Mary he may be in the same class as your son. Sounds like they are waiting for you son to make a full class.
