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."

well guys, Courtney flew out to meet ship on tuesday night. haven't heard from her yet. was hoping for a " i'm here and ok Mom" call but nothing yet. I understand it takes about 2 days to get there from where we are, but she should be there. Any advice from other moms on here about getting aphone call when they fly out to meet ship already out? I know in my mind she is ok but my heart REALLY needs a phone call!!
