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."

We are going to drive. It looks like it is going to be a 11 hour drive for us, but there are 4 of us and it is quite constly to fly!! So, our plan is to drive to Akron Tues night, stay there and then get up early Wed and make the rest of the trip. Should be fun....
