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."

Here is the link for brother DIV 297-298
https://www.facebook.com/groups/269556203146234/
That is the link for your facebook DIV group. It will be for your brother divisions since they do pretty much everything together like work, train, sleep etc. If you haven't already joined it please join. You may be able to find some others there. But it is still early; hopefully more will join you very soon.
