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."

After looking at these pics, I do remember Alisa and your family.  Your profile pic must have been made at her first swearing in. I was also at MEPS Monday afternoon and saw you.  My son was in a later groups swearing in.  They were still trying to get some paperwork from his recruiter showing he had graduated from college.
