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 haven't written for a while so I hope everyone had a good Easter. Since we moved back to PA I'm going to be looking for a new job but I would be willing to drive to Pittsburg for a get together if I'm not working that is!!! I will keep looking on here for new information. If it's raining where you are try to stay warm & dry...
