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."

Thanks Gail for sharing the details of the dinner. Sounds like it was a nice event. I tried the big tent sign up and was not successful last deployment. Might try again.

Gail - I tried to go to bigtent.com and couldn't find the Alexandria group. Do you have any help or hints on this? Glad you had a good time at the "half-way" dinner and your trip.
