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 received an email today!!! Love to hear from our "Molly children". I will try to figure out how to post the picture!
We are writing to say thank you for the amazing care package we received from you. Everyone here loved all of the beef jerky and other snacks in the box. We also appreciate the heartfelt offer you extended to all of us if we are ever in New York . And we do all love some good ole chicken wings! Its always nice to get support from people back home and we thank you for your support of the Navy and the various other Armed Forces. Attached is a picture of our division during our workup cycle. Some of the faces have changed but we thought you might appreciate it.
Thank you,
