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 anyone's letter shows less than 4 guests invited, would you be willing to add someone for me? My daughter put 4 people on the list and then sent me a hint about her grandfather by putting circles around the words retired military/does not need to be listed. OOPS, she doesn't realize that he served his time but didn't actually make a career of it and retire from it. So now he doesn't have a seat and she would want him there as much as she would want me there. I don't want to write her and tell her that yet because I don't want to stress her out or make her feel bad. I thought I would check with you all first and then let her know after she has had a few more weeks to become happier rather than home sick. Any thoughts would be so greatly appreciated :)
