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."

NavyMomSh14Div027 where are you from ? Anywhere on the east coast? When did your recruit leave for boot camp? When is the PIR for your recruit? Maybe our recruits know each other---I have already identified a few that he does know and I have been in touch with their moms.
