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."

Yes, I saw the pictures, but I try not to think about the dangers, even though they are very real. My husband was on the ground when the war started and I did not hear from him for two months as he made his way from Kuwaitt to Baghdad, so I have learned over the years to just give it to God and not think about it, or I drive myself crazy. We should be so proud of those men and women on that ship, they are all heros to me!! My family prays for there safety everyday!!
