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."

Heather, I think your right. I got my letter from my husband today and he wrote that battle stations were Tuesday night which is different from what he said on the phone today. So that means we should hear something Wednesday morning I would think?!

My sailor is now on to his next journey. Thank you to the veteran moms and dads for all your time and wonderful information. You helped so much. I didn't post much, but read everyone's posting. I will continue to pray for your sailors. God bless. Julie
