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."

Thanks MOMom! A young man from our town graduated a few months back and his sister told me he had to be back on base before 8 pm after graduation then he had to go to the airport at 3 am for a flight that didn't leave until later that afternoon. .. sounds like what you heard! Of course his recruiter told me he wouldn't know when his flight was until the week of graduation. .. where is your son going after bc? I'm assuming everyone going to florida will be on the same flight? I usually get letters on Saturday's. .. hopefully I will get some information then!

I am booked at the Navy Lodge. We are getting in on Wednesday night but I haven't rsvped for Sarge's because my SR's girlfriend is scheduled to come in Thursday night so we may need to pick her up from the airport.
I have been pricing out rental cars and they are so expensive. I can't get one away from the airport because our flight comes in too late and the rental companies are closed. I haven't figured out what to do yet.
My SR is staying at Great Lakes for A school so hopefully we will be able to sightsee with him. We're there until Sunday night.
