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."

That is awesome Candy, I am so glad you are still going to PIR. And I bet your SR or Sailor is very glad too. Does this mean he has BattleStations tonight? If so, don't worry, he will do fine ;-)
