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 our 1st letter. He sounded ok. He said he's a flag carrier, so we'll see him well in the march at PIR & he's also a laundry officer (which is ironic because we used to give him a hard time about doing laundry every night). LOL... He said the food is ok, and he can't wait to see us. Keep sending mail & pictures.

That's wonderful. I'm surprised my son isn't the laundry officer. He can wash his clothes & not be told to do it. LOL
I'm happy your son is doing ok.

Got my letter today and my mom got a letter and a lady from church who had sent him a letter, also received a letter from my son. He says they all get along pretty well and that he has made friends from all different backgrounds, as I look at allof your messages, I have to wonder if our sons are now friends, guess we will find out soon enough!!

okay I've seen a lot of chatter about a division being added to our PIR and that is possibly reducing the people we can bring to graduation to only 3. Does anyone know or heard anything about that?

Oh no, I hope this doesn't happen. I was so excited to see 4 guests. My SR has a Step Mom & Step Dad that he's close with along with his Father & I. Really don't want him to feel pressure having to choose one or the other :(
