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."

My daughter said that, as of late last week, they had only gotten mail twice. Her husband has packages that she packed herself before she left with ship dates on them. I'm sure that when they are in open waters, they mail deliveries are less frequent than when they are near ports.
