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."

Sondra, thank you for this - another example how we have all pulled together and supported each other in every way. This is going to be something that will never be forgotten. Praying we can keep the bond as our SRs continue on their journey God Bless you and all our N4M's families and our SR who brought us together.

One of the SR has pneumonia. He is in DIV 946 and my son said he would probably not be able to stay on task to make PIR 10-01. Please pray for him.
