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."

My heart is in D.C today with the sailors and their families of this senseless act against our sailors. Prayers are going forth for comfort and healing.

I read all the bad comments as well about some of the area hotels.  Did have Navy Lodge but had to change at last minute for the following week.  Ramada Inn was clean, friendly staff, conveniently close to just about everything.  GoJos has awesome breakfast including banana split waffles.  I believe there were quite a few of us that stayed at Ramada the weekend of the 16th of August.  Saw alot of Moms there.  They did the streaming video of PIR on the big screen and it was awesome.
