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."

He will then go directly to Meridian and I will drive down there over spring break and see him. I will be thinking of yall tonight...drink one (whatever you may be drinking) for me!!!

aww mamamary! That is cool! When we were there for PIR and over at the NEX, a group ran past us and under the bridge. My son could tell how far along they were and told us to stop and listen - they have to sing all the verses of Anchors Away as they go under the bridge - sure enough - they did. It was coool!
