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."

Jangs, my son also is a MA finishing up his fifth year with the US Navy.
Donna, congrats on the soon homecoming! I hate those long months when I don't get to hear his voice - going on my third month now for this deployment.
