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."

Well my son isn't coming home for Christmas as planned:(  Money issues.  Does anyone know if he still has to take the leave or if he can save it for later?  I'm sure he knows but I'm curious and haven't talked to him in a while.
