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."

Just thought I would say in case you didn't know, you can got to NTTC Meridian on facebook and see pictures of what its like there. They post the graduation pictures there for those that aren't able to attend when time comes. The page does give you a little insight into somethings they do there.
