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."

He's a sailor!!!!! :) we only got 2 talk for 5min. before someone got in trouble & they all had to get off of the phones. Hope some of the others in Div. 937 got the call. I did find out that all in the division passed. They did get in some trouble at the end of BS & on their final check & had to write essays all day but he sounded happy for the few min. we talked. Hope he gets to call bk.
