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."

Yea! Sara called me yesterday to let me know that she was heading to BS...I have not heard anything else, but I am treating this as good news & I am sorry I did not let ya'll know sooner, but I was already on the road armed with knowing I could see her whether she graduated or not...but sure praying the whole time she was going to keep trying til she passed.
I'm here & will see my baby march with her Div...Go! DIV 002!!!!

I heard my sons voice for the first time since he left on Sept. 21st. It was awesome. He was very tired and rambled quite a bit but I just loved hearing his voice.
diannep: could be what you said even though the mom conveyed it differently. We don't always really understand the bits and pieces of what we hear without the background to digest it. So pinkysmom, I'm still hopeful for you but I might not have the order of things right.

@Sacmom Jason will be staying in GL for A school for the AECF field! The sad part is he has one of the longest A schools and he could be in GL for about a year. I am thinking about relocating to be there with him. What is your Sailors next move?

Jason's wife...your enthusiasm is wonderful! It is so difficult to capture what we feel for them on this day...where is Jason going next?
