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."

Mine, too, Betsy -- my son joined in Jan 2012 and made 2nd class on Thanksgiving as well. I think the pass rate was pretty low, so you should be especially proud. Congrats and happy holidays!

My son has been on the  San Fran for two years.  He just made Petty Officer 2nd class.  I'm very proud!
