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."

Neat DivontesMom. I wish there was something like that in the Buffalo area. Maybe there is and I just don't know about it. If you know of something, let me know. Have a good evening.

That's awesome BoomMom! I volunteer for Dogs on Deployment, different missions, but in the end, helping our troops & veterans. We partner up with different providers so that we can have resources available on our website for our military and veterans.

First... AMBurg, so glad your sailor is feeling better. Second, I'm just sharing a personal link to watch because I am so proud of my sister who started an organization in Florida to link Veterans with PTSD with a K-9 for healing. It's pretty cool. Hope you enjoy and that we all find some way to help our sailors and veterans. http://www.rnrfonline.com/organization-pairs-veterans-with-k-9-to-t...
