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."

Hi Resa! My daughter-in-law has been gone this past week, so hopefully she will have her Deers and ID info when she gets back in town today! Yes, the older guys need to stick together and help each other out! LOL. Hopefully, we will start getting some mail this week. I think Sunday would have been there first day to be able to write from everything that I have read.

I am also holding off making any firm plans; just in the planning stages. I think once they are 2 weeks out; then it is pretty much a go!
