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."

I actually made a deployment playlist while my husband was gone, here is the link for it on youtube. I have 52 songs on there! I hope you all like it as much as I do! I will warn you though, two of the songs on there may not be as fitting for you, but they are special to me and my husband. Good Day is just one of his favorites and Sure Thing is our song. But they are still great songs even if you don't relate :)
