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."

For Ruth... My son said they got an academic flag.. hes done well. He said hes strong in everything from but the run , but its good enough to pass. he said being from here with hot, muggy weather to that weather does make a difference. He said those from up there do have the advantage if they were used to that kind of weather. I'd love to talk to two moms who's SR's and mine are really close. He said one is a Cajun from Texas and the other a good ol boy from TX.. i have the names but I know I cant post.! PM me if you think your SR is one of them!

Hmmm, my boy is not Cajun, nor is he a "good ole boy" definately not cowboyish.. but still could be him... My son is was the mail PO and I think yours is too, if I read correctly. Hmmmm?
