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'm not sure if anyone here would be interested, but there is a group in Dallas called Polar Express, and they have a big event in December for the fallen soldier's families. Everything's free along with airfare. You have to go to their website and fill out applications. Just thought I'd pass on the information. My company will be donating our services for the event.
