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."

Not sure if this has been posted or not but here is a 900s FB Group. It is private so you need to be added. Lots of pictures from each PIR graduation. I know we won't see our boys for another PIR or so but I love pretending he is playing Where's Waldo in there! https://www.facebook.com/groups/900Division/
