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."

Looking for Moms and Family Members who have Sailors on the USS Bataan
Sincerely, CC
080910-N-8154G-058 ATLANTIC OCEAN (Sept. 10, 2008) Sailors aboard the multi-purpose amphibious assault ship USS Bataan (LHD 5) participate in command-wide physical training on the ship's flight deck. Bataan is at sea after completing HURREX 08-002, a U.S. 2nd Fleet-directed exercise designed to test the ship's ability to respond to humanitarian assistance and disaster relief needs during the 2008 hurricane season.
