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."

Had a great time at the meet-n-greet yesterday, must have another one before too long!
My3Sons - I have a rather important question for you - what was it you said that you had on your well pump that automatically turned it off so it wouldn't burn up? We have NO WATER now....apparently the sprinkler system was on automatic and ran all the stations last night. So I think either the pump burned up, or the well is now dry :(
