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."

03/15/2011 Ship Date Anyone else have someone who shipped out this date?

My son left from Florida, Miami Meps station on 03/15/2011. Got "the call" at 2:30 AM eastern time. Now I guess I wait for the box and the letter.

Does anyone know for sure if there are only allowed 4 a graduation? We have added a fiance to the crew and my sone really wants her to be there.

Maybe today is the day:)
