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."

judyann - I'm in Springfield, a hop-skip-jump away!! my sailor is heading to A school (eventually LOL) in Goose Creek, as long as he passes everything he'll be MM.
His first choice for duty station is Washington! I just found this out last week!! Of course he's got several months of training before he gets a duty station. How does your sailor like Bremerton?
