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."

Congrats. So happy for you!! Sure was nice to have it. Did you get a note in your box?? I did not. Was really hoping for one but it was probably better she didn't write one. I would have been a crying mess. Probably better to have the baby steps... Box.. Form letter and then regular letters.

I still haven't got the box. I really thought it would be here today, but I was not home. I have the address from the recruiter, but everything I have read not sure if I should trust it. If it is correct my son is Division 160. He did not give me a PIR yet.
