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 talked to my son, too. He sounded beat, but happy and excited for Friday. He also mentioned that 039 is in line for Hall of Fame status depending on how another division does in Battlestations. Our division scored 4.8/5.0.
Congrats to all of our new sailors. Hooyah!
