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 now have our 2 nd generation Sailor. So excited. Made me laugh when he told us " I came to the realization pretty quickly that this is how I have been raised." So proud of him. He called around 5est. I hope everyone got there calls. The whole div passed 026. So proud of all the new Sailor's. We were able to talk to him for quite a while.
