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."

Finally got my call, poor thing is really sick. She is hoping to get to medical tomorrow. She had watch from 11:00-midnight then they left at 1:00am for the airport. So I guess I will be heading to the post office tomorrow to mail her the phone and a few clothes. She didn't want much, said her sea bag was heavy enough. lol
