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 everybody, thanks for your input, but my son sold his car over the weekend......was able to do it on craigs list to a guy that likes to "tinker" with Hondas and needed it for parts I think! HA!
JOEY Katie's mom....it was a red 89 Honda Accord,with already a major engine repair some months ago, and just recently, an oil leak-problem-something-something that was going to be a big job too. It was losing power too, when out on the highway, so it was getting unsafe to drive. No radio, funny noises (probably lack of oil!!) It needs to be with someone who can work with its various problems....
Your daughter would NOT have wanted this car.
Good luck to her tho, she'll find something!
