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."

My son is in 207 and will be heading to Goose Creek as well. How did you hear that they are leaving early Saturday? Looks like we have a lot of SRs headed for Goose Creek :) It'll be good that they all know each other.

Got a letter from my son in 207 today. He sounded good. It was short and sweet. Said he had to get up at 3am. He said he is so tired. His division is #2 I wonder who is #1.

Is your son in Div 207? I have been asking my son if he had any flight info. He is also going to San Antonio.

Yes my son is in 207, he didn't say anything about flight info. Sorry my son is not very informative. No word for 2 weeks.

No. Nothing. Don;t they know we can't go this long without talking to them? My son isn't a big letter writer, only got three so far. Maybe they don't give them enough time.

I know there in full swing, I'm sure the time is passing quickly for them, just not us. I just keep counting the days, it's almost over

I've only gotten 3 letters so far as well. Two of those came this past weekend. It has been torture not hearing from him. He sounded good but has some concerns regarding the run portion of the PFA. If anyone knows when the final PFA takes place please let me know.
