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."

Hey everyone be sure to ask your sailors if they bought a lotto ticket last Sept. or so and never checked it........
there is an unclaimed ticket worth $171, 000 which was bought at the snack bar at Naval Air Station San Diego, CA.
