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."

Hi all, if this posts twice, my fault! I just got a surprise call from my SR, it lasted 9min 45 sec. It was a great surprise, I guess they did something right! FIRST OFF, PLEASE PRAY FOR HER FEET! She has been having probs and finally went to the medic and is now on light duty for 3 days. She broke into tears, she is so afraid she might have to be put back, it's like her worst nightmare.
Both feet hurt, so it leads me to believe it's something she is doing wrong in her walk. They are icing it and she doesn't have to march or do jumping jacks....darn, she'll miss that!
BTW, they know each other by last names, so I couldn't find out if she knew anyone...that's just the way it is, Mom.
She also asked that her Dad and I sit down this evening, turn off the TV and pray for her and all the others. She is so relying on the power of prayers!
