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...yes I was hoping to get some pics at the Meet and Greet of all N4M;s together and maybe each division?
I know we will have cameras but was hoping someone had a Really good one to take a really nice professional picture...
THEN i was thinking we could give that photographer 5.00 that night of M and G to have that group and division pic sent back to you. We could get those yellow envelopes and have everyone address them for the photographer?
Any suggestions.... I just know this will be a moment in our lives we will want to always remember.
Am I crazy for wanting to do this.... LOL..
