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."

I'm so proud of your girl!! They are all doing so awesome, it's some of the best feelings I've had yet, I can't even begin to imagine what's to come, OMG.

Wanted to let you know, if you don't want to search for the one I got, you can go to yankeecandle.com, and just key in Stars & Stripes in the search field..it'll come up for you. The only size they have is the large jar for 24.99 (I asked at the store). I lit mine for the first time today...I'm home taking it easy, and it just felt right to know it's on for my Davon and whatever he's doing today. And the nutcracker, you won't be disappointed, I promise...it's awesome :D In my letter to Davon yesterday, I included a copy of it from target.com - I know he's gonna just crack up and think I'm outta control :)
