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 am going to go to a JoAnn's fabric or Michael's craft store and buy some orange felt to make a scarf out of. I'm sure they can give you guidance how to make one really simple. Also plan to buy cut letters and numbers to trace and cut out ship and division number on the end of it and glue it on!
