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 would like to come, but I am holding all commitments in reserve until Steve gets home and we see how his MANY plans fit into the schedule. He wants to show his fiance Sarah all around the Chicago area since she has never been here before.
