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."

We had toll roads going up and coming back in IL.  A person at the hotel gave us a route to avoid toll roads going to and from the RTC.  We missed a toll at one booth coming back because the cash lane was not in the same position as it had been for all of the others.  Have a great trip and just watch carefully if you do have some, but it looks like you should not have any.
