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."

Hi everyone, I miss my sailor girl very much. I saw her last on her PIR 7-23-10. She put in a CHIT to come home for Labor Day weekend but we don't know yet. If she doesn't get it I am hoping to go see her instead. She is currently in Pensacola for A-school. :)
