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."

Happy Thanksgiving to all...My DD just graduated and is heading for A-School as an MR. She is my only child and I miss her but also feel very blessed to have such a loving, honorable, courageous, dedicated, beautiful young woman as my daughter. Tears of goodness and sadness all at the same time. I'm totally new to this site so please feel free to friend me and I'm from the Gettysburg area of PA. Prayers and blessings to each of you and your loved ones.
