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."

I just got back from seeing my baby boy....I am thrilled to know he is okay and excited to get home!!!! Unfortunately I only got to spend less than 12 hours with him...but it was worth it!!!! By the way if you gals do not appreciate the captain these guys have I would be greatly disappointed in all of you!!! He is the most caring officer I have ever met within the Navy and he bent over backwards to make me feel welcome aboard!!!! When our family members return home I hope you will all give them a warm welcome for me and please take the time to thank the captain...he really cares for his crew and takes the delay home with a very heavy heart!!!!
