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."

The same to you, Pam.  I miss you all.  We are finally enjoying some cooler weather in Oklahoma.  Thank God.  There are so many things to thank God for, isn't there.

I cried when reading that on CNN. God bless them and their families.  A tragic loss for our country.  May God keep all our sailors safe.
