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."

I got a letter!! Div 010! Made my morning.. I'm wishing the best for you guys who didn't get one yet.. Just know that he wrote it a week after they sent out the form letter and I'm just getting it now.. So it takes a while! I'm in upstate New York by the way.

He said it is so boring so try to write every day with stuff that's going on at home or his favorite sports team.. Mine asked for lyrics to songs so it must be very boring
