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."

Jess is really good about paying attention to people's birthdays on facebook and tells them 'happy birthday' but it is so funny that he tells them a day before their birthday because of the time difference LOL. A lot of people say "dude, my birthday isn't until tomorrow" and then he has to explain. It's funny cuzz he doesn't give up, Have you seen your sailors do that? :)
