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."

This Ship needs to go fast, they will be changing Addresses in mid- February and we need them done before the change.
There are 330 aboard the ship and they need some Love for us, The Chaplain said they are inneed of something that will lift their spirits. They have been working long hours and little or no communications with the families at home. We all know how hard this can be on a person.
