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."

Sarah,Welcome to the site. My husband did the exact same thing. He graduated from Embry Riddle, and has gone up to Rhode Island for OCS. This site has been wonderful and such a blessing. If you ever need anything let me know. :)

Hey everyone! New to this site, my man just left for OCS in Rhode Island and I am stuck in Michigan. :( He attended Embry Riddle down in Florida for 2 years and now has his bachelors in flying. This is his first step to a 15-20 year career in the Navy as a pilot. This is our first time being separated for the 10 months we have been together. It is going to be hard I can tell (I just started college as well) but I know it will be all worth it! I love my Navy man. :)
