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."

Ihpa: We will certainly do that for you... The best thing we can always do for one another is pray for them... : ) I know she will be welcomed on her ship as there are alot of wonderful mothers in this PIR group that raised some incredble children. We will pray they embrace her and lift her up. As I am sure they would want the same if it were them in that situation. Welcome to our PIR group. I am sorry for the set back. I am sure it stings. God always sees the bigger picture and I know he has a plan... My favorite verse is Jerimiah 29:11.. FOR I KNOW THE PLANS I HAVE YOU DECLARES THE LORD. PLANS TO PROSPER YOU AND NOT TO HARM YOU, PLANS TO GIVE YOU A HOPE AND A FUTURE... Hang on to that today...
