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 Gail M - Enjoy having him home :o) How long has he been in so far?
I am a newbie. Son just finished A school in GL and surprised us and came home last week before heading to SD this coming Monday. The days are sure flying by. We will miss him but having him home has been so nice. It's been 6 months since he's been home and is enjoying his bed! He's been doing time with the recruiters office visiting schools and is looking forward to getting on with his duty in SD.
