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."

Congrats to Div 147 for winning the Captain's Cup. Extra phone calls are appreciated here, whatever it takes, lol!!! Sounded so much better today after 10 hours of sleep!! Happy Easter to all. I guess they get to spend the afternoon in "recruit heaven" which is some sort of arcade, games, workout place or something. Thanks for the spreadsheet, Mardee. Nice to put all the info together!!
