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."

Dusty's Mom--Very happy you only missed all of the stress we've been feeling today. Got to thinking that you might be the lucky one because at least for a little while, you "escaped" from this madness...assumes you had some kind of anesthesia.
