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."

okay thanks! i can't wait to get mines! I've been so anxious and stalking my front door the past couple of days. where do you live if you don't mind me asking? cause i live in california and several people who's son have the exact same timeline as my fiancé have already received their box and form letters. i'm scared his got lost or something especially because my fiancé cell phone will be in the box! I know he didn't send it to his folks because we lived together before he left so all of his information is in our address and his parents are in the process of moving so they do not have a permanent address right now.

It includes a family brochure that has hotel names/numbers. We booked at Navy Lodge (which is not in the brochure)as I saw that quite a few others booked there and had a good experience.
