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."

so jake said he is covered in a weird rash =/ he said it's not like poison ivy (he is terribly reactive to PI) but it's all over, not really itchy too bad...at first I was stumped--then when I got off the phone with him, I realized he may be allergic to WOOL just like me--the blankets they use are wool--their blues are wool, their peacoats are wool--haha--this could present an uncomfortable winter for him! Lol Poor guy

so happy that all the calls are coming in for the others, kinda reliving it w/out the stress level. It is so much easier, isn't it. The list that i got is hard to read some names, guys writing..... there is one with a start of a "D" and a Jacob but no Mike and no last names. But Pieter! that boy has very clear writing!
