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."

Diane, thanks for all you do! Yes, I think Einsteins was a great place for us to meet-like I told you they had plenty of space for us-right? Plus, hey, we got free bagels upon leaving-can't beat that! I'm all for that becoming our regular meeting place unless we want to treat ourselves to something really nice sometime. I don't think any of us really go for the food anyways-we go for our sailors and the great company that we keep.
