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."

I am planning on being at the M&G as well as my son's girlfriend. I just dropped him at the recruiters office this a.m. and we are all pretty emotional still. I hope I can keep it together on Saturday. My son should fly to Great Lakes at approx. 6 am on Thursday for BC. He will be a CTT.
