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 hope everyone is enjoying their Holidays! I am nearing the end of leave with my son, and having a hard time wanting to let him leave, I know it will be a year at least before I see him again. I am so proud of him and the man he has become, and I look forward to hearing about his new adventures. But I will miss him terribly:)
