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."

Good morning Nor. Cal. Moms and Dads, Chrissy is studying hard for ATT phase 2. It is not like college, much harder, they throw alot at this kids in a short time. I'm praying she will retain enough to pass her finals. I'm not worried about the PT, she is good shape and should pass that. I wish I could go to the A school graduation, I do love ceremonies. But she told me it is no a big deal. Still, I'm her Mom and I am proud of her. I wish I could afford to go. Hopefully she will get San Deigo for C school that is much closer!
