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."

Omg, thanks for saying you didn't receive your first letter until the third week, that makes me feel so much better. I know my son is not a writer, but I have to believe he will definitely send one. Thank you so much.

You said decal. I'm just wondering if it's like a cling that you put in the window, magnet, or sticker?

It is a decal....it is sticky and will adhere to glass...It is not like a bumper sticker, but if you have questions, just send Kathy, my friend making them a message...she can spell out all the details clearly for you..:)

Hello. This is a die-cut decal that is applied to a window or to a vehicle itself. The only portion of the decal that you receive is the white piece that is shown in the photo. The background of the decal is whatever surface that you place it on. It is not a bumper sticker that is printed. It is all die-cut. Hope that helps. Kathy -
