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."

IF A DOG WERE YOUR TEACHER
You would learn stuff like.....
1. When loved ones come home, always run to greet
them.
2. Never pass up the opportunity to go for a joyride.
3. Allow the experience of fresh air and the wind in your
face to be pure ecstasy.
4. When it’s in your best interest-practice obedience.
5. Let others know when they’ve invaded your territory.
6. Take naps and stretch before rising.
7. Run, romp, and play daily.
8. Thrive on attention and let people touch you.
9. Avoid biting, when a simple growl will do.
10. On warm days, stop to lie on your back on the grass.
11. On hot days, drink lots of water and lay under a
shady tree.
12. When your happy, dance around and wag your entire
body.
13. No matter how often you’re scolded, don’t buy into
the guilt thing and pout, run right back and be friends.
14. Delight in the simple joy of a long walk.
15. Eat with gusto and enthusiasm.
16. Stop when you have had enough.
17. Be loyal.
18. Never pretend to be something you’re not.
19. If what you want lies buried, dig until you find it.
20. When someone is having a bad day, be silent, sit
close by and nuzzle them gently.
