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."

Also Aurea we have a traveling book "Act Like A Woman, but Think Like A Man".
We are all reading it and then sending it on.........the only catch is that you have to write your thought or ideas in it.
If you like to be put on the list just PM and I'll put you on.
